What are the advantages of using static dispatching in a system?

Static dispatch means that the method selection for invocation occurs at compile time rather than at runtime. This provides several advantages:

• Increased performance: function calls are directly inserted into the code, without the need to look up the method at runtime.
• Compiler optimization: the compiler can better optimize the code, for example, by inlining functions.
• Type safety: errors with incompatible types are detected at compile time.

In iOS and Swift, static dispatch is used for methods declared as final or in structures and enumerations, which allows for more efficient and safer code.
