I have been researching and can see the development and abstraction that programming languages have been taking. What are the real pros and cons of scripting languages compared to compiled ones, since Ruby, Python and so many others have been gaining ground in very important areas such as Machine Learning, Big Data, and AI?

    The answer to the last question Maniero posed as related elucidates many things. As those who have worked supporting CENAPAD-UFC, I can say that scripting languages allow to express more things writing less. In this sense, they are used as "collage language", with the heavy core of the processing being done in C or Fortran.

  • Thanks for the reply. Helped. :D
