Nominal systems are used to determine if types are equivalent, as well as if a type is a subtype of another. Nominal type systems contrast with structural systems, where comparisons are based on the structure of the types in question and do not require explicit declarations.

A structural type system (or property-based type system) is a major class of type systems in which type compatibility and equivalence are determined by the type's actual structure or definition and not by other characteristics such as its name or place of declaration.
14 de jun. de 2022 · Nominal Typing. In a nominal type system, types are only compatible if they have the same name (or "tag", or "brand"). They are stricter than structural type systems — in fact, nominal typing is a subset of structural typing. Note that our above example was doing nominal typing in one of the most structural type systems out there ...
Checking against the name is nominal typing and checking against the structure is structural typing. Nominal typing. Languages like C++, Java, and Swift have primarily nominal type...
Nominal: Type compatibility is based on type name. Structural: Type compatibility is based on the type structure, e.g. in C if 2 variables are struct types with different names but the same structure, then their types are compatible. Now about explicit and implicit: why is it different from static and dynamic typing?
1 de feb. de 2018 · 1 Altmetric. Explore all metrics. Abstract. In this article, I argue for a typing scheme for modeling that unifies the hitherto separated approaches of nominal and structural typing. Both these approaches have their respective advantages and disadvantages, and I suggest a unifying approach that provides one with the best of both worlds on demand.
