Ah. Then the answers are "scripting" and "compiled". Unless they want
to hear "programming" and "compiled". Basically any of the four
possible answers are all correct (insomuch as the questions actually

As someone who doesn't know better, I like your post. Can you explain
'script' ?

as Larry Wall put it:
"Suppose you went back to Ada Lovelace and asked her the difference between a script and a program. She'd probably look at you funny, then say something like: Well, a script is what you give the actors, but a program is what you give the audience. That Ada was one sharp lady..."
