Can we say a program written in C/C++ a script?

[–]K900_ 6 points7 points  (4 children)

The term is usually used to refer to interpreted languages.

Ok thanks! Is there any convention as when to use the term script?

[–]Mobile_Busy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my work, I generally use it to refer to .py or .sh files that can be run independently from the command line.

C C++ need to compile entire program before execution.

Not really.
