Python 3.12 Preview: Static Typing Improvements

Python’s support for static typing gradually improves with each new release of Python. The core features were in place in Python 3.5. Since then, there’ve been many tweaks and improvements to the type hinting system. This evolution continues in Python 3.12, which, in particular, simplifies the typing of generics.
