It is said that hclo4 is a strong acid, whereas hclo2 is a weak acid. what does this mean in terms of the extent to which the two substances are ionized in solution?

a strong acid ionizes completely in aqueous solution just like Hclo4
HClO4(l) + H2O(l) ------>H3O+(aq) + ClO4-(aq)

but a weak doesn't ionize completely in water
HClO2 + H2O ⇌ H3O+ + ClO2-
