Later its type can not be changed. The type of var-variables is not java.lang.Object so they cannot take a value of String or Integer.

It is interesting to me what is your proposition, is it going to be possible, later, when we finish the work with the concrete object in the var-variable ("entries" in this case), to re-assign to it reference to object of other type (not in the inheritance tree of the previous one, to say, String in our example: entries = "Pesho";)? Is this going to be allowed? It sounds very comfortable :), but what about the strict type definition in Java?
