What is the difference between scripting and coding?..

Answer / Dalveer Singh

Scripting and coding are related but distinct concepts. Coding refers to the process of writing software or programming languages in a general sense, where you create complex programs, applications, or algorithms from scratch. On the other hand, scripting involves writing smaller pieces of code that automate repetitive tasks or perform specific functions in an already existing software environment (such as shell scripts in Unix/Linux).
