Scripting languages are typically interpreted rather than compiled. They do not require a separate build or compilation stage before execution; instead, an interpreter reads the source (or bytecode) at run time. This trait allows rapid development and makes them well-suited for automating tasks. In contrast, compiled languages-like C or Go-must go through an explicit compilation step that produces machine code before they can be executed.
