What this snippet does
noImplicitAny forces explicit typing for parameters, preventing unsafe 'any' types from silently spreading in the codebase.
Expected output
Compile Error: Parameter 'x' implicitly has an 'any' type.
Why practise typing this
Typing tsconfig & compiler code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation TypeScript uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
