Perhaps, but it's confusing

>>240984 It's rather hard not to confuse the two, considering that the difference is quickly fading. Scripts today can to anything that a program can, and vice versa. The difference used to be that scripts are kept in source form while programs are compiled, but that is not 100% true anymore. There are compilers for several traditional script languages, several programming languages compile to intermediate byte code, several languages that were stored in source format have been traditionally called programming languages, and there are chips out there that can run some programming languages without the need for compilation.
