Scripting Languages
A programming language created especially for runtime environments is known as a scripting language. Scripting languages facilitate the automation of many software programs, browser web pages, OS (operating system) shell usage, etc. Scripting languages are typically interpreted, rather than compiled, which means that they do not need to be compiled into machine code before they can be run. There are numerous available scripting languages, some of which are Python, Ruby, and JavaScript, and each one of those languages comes with a special set of features and capabilities.
Generally speaking, there exist two types of scripting languages:
Server-side scripting languages: they are used to create dynamic web content on the server. These languages are executed on the server, and the resulting web page is then sent to the client's web browser. Examples of server-side scripting languages include PHP, Ruby, and Python.
Client-side scripting languages: they are used to create dynamic web content in the client's web browser. These languages are executed on the client's computer, rather than on the server. Examples of client-side scripting languages include JavaScript and ActionScript.
