  <p>what is the difference between programming and scripting languages? I have worked on C/C++ for a while and now I started looking at Python, I was told it is a good scripting language <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5961812/script-to-read-information-from-other-sites">this post</a>. </p>
  
  <p>But as I'm learning, I'm finding that everything that can be done with C till now can be done with Python! so what is the actual true difference between scripting and programming languages?</p>
