Scripting and Programming Language
A scripting language is a high-level language that is designed to be integrated in other programming languages.

Another key difference is that a scripting language runs only in response to an event while programming language runs even when not responding to an event. Some scripting languages are embedded within HTML as either client side or server side scripting language in order to add web page functionalities. Without the help of the scripting language like JavaScript, Python, PHP, Ruby and so on we would not be able to perform all the event that we do on this Hiveblog and other websites or webApps.
