As a beginner, you'll eventually run into enough issues with your code that you will start to ask "is there a better way?" My answer will be: yes. Strongly typed languages are FAR superior because they force you to make your code robust and eliminate most runtime errors by default. You'll eventually come around (unless you're in a company with a hack culture or are surrounded by hacks that don't know any better).
