What is the difference between a module and a script in Python?
Question: Think the title summarizes the question :-)


Answer: A script is generally a directly executable piece of code, run by itself. A
module is generally a library, imported by other pieces of code.

Note that there's no internal distinction -- both are executable and
importable, although library code often won't do anything (or will just run
its unit tests) when executed directly and importing code designed to be a
script will cause it to execute, hence the common `if __name__ == "__main__"`
test.
