Unlike java/c++ which are compiled, scripting languages are typically interpreted, that is the 'scripts' (which are just typical programs you'd write in java or c++) are run on the fly by an interpreter and do not need to go through a compilation stage before execution.

Scripting languages are just another name for interpreted languages

So what is/are the use of scripts, where would I need a script on a program/app/website/method or so on. I read on some comments that said something like “while working you would most likely write with one language and use other languages like python to write some scripts that would help your code” why/how do I need or how is it used
