with the first option you have **type safety** with the 2nd one you have **type inference**. See [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37707403/what-is-the-difference-between-type-safety-and-type-inference/37707404#37707404) – mfaani Jan 17 '17 at 19:53

Nevertheless in most cases you should trust the compiler (inference) more than yourself (safety) ;-) – vadian Jan 17 '17 at 19:57
