Type soundness

In computer science, a programming language with a static type system is considered to have type soundness if a well-typed program cannot cause type errors. [Adrew K. Wright and Matthias Felleisen (June 18, 1992), "A Syntactic Approach to Type Soundness", Rice Technical Report TR91-160, Department of Computer Science, Rice University.]
