Difference between scripting and non scripting language -


i wondering difference between scripting , non scripting language. example lua , c++. because in game development read hiring programmer must know scripting language. thank you!

some of historical in nature.

non-scripted languages c , c++ compiled "raw machine code" (rmc). rmc run directly on machine. note rmc typically specific underlying cpu/hardware , supporting operating system. if want run c program on both linux , windows, has compiled each (two copies maintain , distribute).

a scripted language typically not compiled. instead, source code passed interpreter understands language. interpreter typically written in language compiled rmc. interpreter's task read scripted language, , translate operations done rmc.

the line has blurred in recent years (decades?) advent of systems java. languages java, source code compiled intermediate/portable language, , java virtual machine handles translation of portable language operations target cpu/os.
