The main difference is in how they are used.
Scripts are typically quick and dirty. Say, a bash script to make your life easier. Whereas a 'programming' language is meant to be much more thought out and deliberate. That's not to say that you can't do that with a 'scripting' language. You can make full-blown GUI applications (or web app) with python as well as C++. The thing with 'programming' languages is that they are usually faster, and offer more control over low-level things if you want. 'programming' languages are typically used in scenarios where the code will be around for a long time. If you want to write something quickly and then never use it again, 'scripting' languages are what you want. |
OT: My question is are we really scripting in pawn or programming?
