Is C++ considered weakly typed? Why?

Question

I\'ve always considered C++ to be one of the most strongly typed languages out there.
So I was quite shocked to see Table 3 of this paper state that C++ is weak

Answer 1

Well, since the creator of C++, Bjarne Stroustrup, says in The C++ Programming Language (4th edition) that the language is strongly typed, I would take his word for it:

C++ programming is based on strong static type checking, and most techniques aim at achieving a high level of abstraction and a direct representation of the programmer’s ideas. This can usually be done without compromising run-time and space efficiency compared to lower-level techniques. To gain the benefits of C++, programmers coming to it from a different language must learn and internalize idiomatic C++ programming style and technique. The same applies to programmers used to earlier and less expressive versions of C++.

In this video lecture from 1994 he also states that the weak type system of C really bothered him, and that's why he made C++ strongly typed: The Design of C++ , lecture by Bjarne Stroustrup
