Although thinking, probably only happens in languages where type can change arbitrarily. Here the type can't change except in a new block, which isn't really changing the type, but creating a new variable with the same name that shadows the old variable.

Does intp test the type of the variable, or the type of the contents. Does intp(x) return true because x is of type int (also of type float), or false because the contents of x (currently 5.0) is float, so not an int at that point. I'm thinking contents, not variable itself, so you can do checks against it.
