What is the difference between scripting and programming?

Question

A quiz question in module 1 html course inspires me to ask this. For someone new to the coding world, I appreciate any help in clarifying this. Is there really any difference between scripting and programming as some languages like python is often categorised as scripting language?

Answer 1

There is not much difference on creating them.
Programs usually get compiled to become usable (like C#) but scripts don't.
