C is translated to machine code, but it's not using another language to have it run. You obviously have no knowledge of CS or anything to do with it, so I see no reason to even attempt a response to your statement. If you want to come here and try to just bash someone with absolutely no prior history in this field, do so on your own terms in a verbal conflict with yourself, not in a discussion board where we are trying to have an intelligent conversation. Why you want to come into this board and try to start a fight based on as silly comments as the ones you have just posted, I'll never know. Maybe a moderator can answer that for us?trukfixer wrote:Sounds to me, like based on infolock's definition. even C is a scripting language- it doesnt directly interact with the computer either- it is compiled into binary instructions that actually do the work - PHP is also compiled (at run time) into binary code that tells the computer to do the work - same difference..
Same with python and perl and java and ruby and pascal.. all are languages that are in some form or another, *compiled* into a set of binary code instructions that are then given to the machine to process.. By infolock's definition of a programming language, then only programming in actual binary code is a true programming language- cause that's what actually does the work.
I am deeply curious to see where, exactly, infolock got his education from ..
php = compiled into binary at runtime
C = compiled into binary prior to runtime
Basic = compiled into biunary at runtime
(Oh yeah Basic is most definitely called a programming language by professors- it is in no way a scripting language)
Looks to me like infolock's arguments have no merit or basis in fact..
/me puts infolock on /ignore
