What is The Difference Between Oxygene And Windows PowerShell, Programming Languages
Oxygene is an Object-Oriented Programming Language, while Windows PowerShell is a Scripting Language
What are Object-Oriented Programming Languages
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm based on the concept of “objects”, which may contain data, in the form of fields, often known as attributes; and code, in the form of procedures, often known as methods. In OOP, computer programs are designed by making them out of objects that interact with one another. (Wikipedia)
What are Scripting Languages
Scripting languages are programming languages that control an application. Scripts can execute independent of any other application. They are mostly embedded in the application that they control and are used to automate frequently executed tasks like communicating with external programs.
