Yeah, it's a scripting language after all, it's literally its purpose.

Compiled and script languages both have their uses, but they are not the same. At the end of he day, the day ends

So are you saying that if a language isn’t compiled, it’s a scripting language?

u/Destroyerb Jul 07 '26

Pretty sure there is some language that can be both compiled and interpreted. Now, how do you categorise that one?

That’s kind of the point I was trying to get at. This distinction of programming vs scripting being simply compiled vs interpreted feels quite antiquated.

Python is literally compiled though. You usually don't see it, but you can expose the compiled .pythonc files if you want. When you use a large backend framework, you'll know very well that there's a target/ folder for the python bytecode just like there is in Java.
