In the Structural Type System section, the documentation states that TypeScript’s type checking can be referred to as duck typing because it compares the shape of values. However, this is incorrect due to the following reasons:

  • duck typing compares types based on behavior.
  • structural typing compares types based on their structure (or) the members they contain.

This PR resolves the above issue.
