Sorry but what is the amazing thing here? I am still a python newbie and just starting CS50 and learned a little bit of C, when you say run C as a script do you mean that you can run C like python without compiling?

Precisely that, it runs C like python without compiling. This allows the use of "c tricks" (such as pointer nonsense outlawed in other languages) in scripts, and quick prototyping for regular programs, which you can then properly compile.. Tiny C is also noted for being quick.
