What's the difference between Programming and Scripting?

Man im just trying to figure out how to do this script thing to automate something for this game project im doing😂 i guess the title that fits me is self taught enthusiast developer

I name both as "code writers" since script and programs are codes and syntax.

I'm the programmer, I'm the real programmer and other programmers are just scripters, so won't the real programmer please stand up, please stand up, please stand up...

Well, that was confusing

so in summary , scripts are programs that are run at runtime , its interpreted by another program versus being compiled into zeros and ones.

Funny thing is both C# and Java are not even fully compiled languages. Java is compiled to byte code and then interpreted but the JVM and C# follows the same model.

Me on a daily basis: "Yeah I'm like a coding scripter who utilizes programming".

I loved the reference to Alan Turing! Excellent video thank you for the great work.

well said! Appreciate your time

Well said🙂

you didnt actually explaiined the difference

thanks

Good explaination.

Hmmm. Very interesting questions here. I think the terminology that we use has been influenced by developers having to convey their thoughts to people that are not developers. I have found that people that have been writing code for longer tend to flop between what they call things depending on who they are talking to. I'm fairly new to programming (I would say), but I do it sometimes as well. In other studies, I'm not sure that this happens much. When would a particle physicist have to explain what a particle accelerator is to their sponsor or someone outside of the field; I think those are rare occasions lol.
Also, I personally hate the idea of trying to make someone else's achievements seem less important by saying things like "you're not a real programmer/scripter unless <fill in arbitrary reason here>, " or "Well I did <thing> and that was wayyyy harder than what you did." The only reason that I have found to compare experience in this way is for making efficiency recommendations. If you see someone using Java or C# for implementing neural networks or emulating hardware, it doesn't hurt to recommend that they consider a more efficient language/enviro for those things. We should never discourage new developers by minimizing what they have done so far.


Great video! Worth the button and bell combo for sure! xD

Hey man good seeing you at knowledge before the swag swap!

Thanks for the videos

Nice one!
