This is definitely a scripting question. However, to correct your
terminology, scripting *_is_* programming.
Good, then the terms are completely interchangeable:
Can you write a Fortran script? Or an assembly language script?
How about a C++ script?
Your logic has failed, and you're making yourself seem foolish. p->q does not mean q->p
As someone else said, scripting is a kind of programming.
Shell scripting is programming in an interpreted language, as is perl, python, and and many other languages.
Intepreters exist for fortran, PL/1, COBOL, Java is an interpreted language though compilers for (much of) it exist. I don't think anyone would say that Java programs are scripts.
