Special type indicating an unconstrained type.
- Any is assignable to every type.
- Any assumed to have all methods and attributes.
- All values are assignable to Any.
Note that all the above statements are true from the point of view of
static type checkers. At runtime, Any cannot be used with instance
checks.
3.11: Any can now be used as a base class. This can be useful for avoiding type checker errors with classes that can duck type anywhere or are highly dynamic.
