-GSF enforces type instantiations even when applied to an imprecisely-typed value. This program, contrary to gradual parametric languages found in the literature, throws a runtime error as the instantiated function is called with an argument of an incompatible type. For instance consider the following program:+GSF enforces type instantiations even when applied to an imprecisely-typed value. Consider the following program:

-This program fails at runtime:+This program, contrary to prior work, throws a runtime error as the instantiated function is called with a boolean after being instantiated to ''Int''.:
  
 {{:research:software:gsf:example4-2.png?700|}} {{:research:software:gsf:example4-2.png?700|}}
  
-because the function is expecting an integer as argument and a boolean is passed instead.
