what is the difference between scripting language and
programming language.?

Answer Posted / sumit upadhyay

Programing languages are compiled, where as scriptig
languages never compiled they always interpreted.Scripting
languages must embedded with markup laguages but programming
languages are stand alone.Programming langaues have complier
to generate machine dependent code or some other.Every
programming language have own compiler.


The primary difference between a "programming language" (C,
C++, VB etc.) and a "scripting language" (PHP, ASP, JSP,
JavaScript, VBScript)is that code written in a programming
language needs to be compiled before it is run. Once it is
compiled, it can be run any number of times.

Scripting languages, on the other hand, are interpreted at
run-time. This means that every time you want to run the
program, a separate program needs to read the code,
interpret it, and then follow the instructions in the code.
Compiled code has already been interpreted into machine
language, so it is will typically execute faster because the
conversion into machine language has already been done.

Markup languages (HTML, XML) are somewhat different from
both of the others. A markup language is simply a set of
tags that are used to "mark up" text documents so that
sections of text can be logically arranged and labeled.
These documents can be viewed as plain text, or, more
commonly, are viewed through a browser. The browser parses
the document, looking for markup tags, and it then arranges
the text and/or formats it according to the values in the tags.
