However, I solved my problems by using a couple of strategies:

The first of these catches most of my typos right there as I make them (and a lot of other errors too), and also provides a pretty good code completion support. I’ve never relied on code completion with any language, so I don’t actually see 100% support as a big deal.

The second point is good regardless of the programming language, but due to Python’s nature I feel unit tests can cover some of the things you’d otherwise expect a compiler to do. And because Python makes it really easy to create and run unit tests it is a win-win in my opinion.
