can you really call python programming though? The reason why python is so quick to write is because its so-called libraries are pre-compiled C programs. so you’re not writing new programs, you’re scripting existing ones.

Is scripting programming?

not really, imo. its more like a sequenced list of pointers to various instruction sets.

But there are still if, while, function definitions, etc. in scripting languages. It doesn’t seem to me that different than even programming in assembler. In Assembler you also call subroutines, etc. and in every other language you also call functions from libraries.

The same is true for JVM bytecode, and C operations really are just aliases for ASM operations, and ASM (sometimes) is just aliases for microcode operations
