By searching I have found a similarity that is both import libraries. But unable to point out any other similarities, as everywhere I can see only differences.

    What sources are you using? Scripting languages are a subset of programming languages - some programming languages are scripting languages, and some usually aren't considered to be scripting languages. Also, is there a particular distinction you're looking for? – templatetypedef Feb 11 '19 at 04:26

Scripting languages are programming languages. Most of the programming languages in use today that once deserved the "scripting" label are complete programming environments from the syntactically, semantically, and library-wise.

At some point "scripting language" may have been used for languages that were suitable only for writing short scripts, but today any language that doesn't require a complex compilation step to run and that provides a read–eval–print loop (REPL) is considered good enough for scripting.
