coding is a catch all for any type of computer language writing. Scripting is a specific type of coding.There are other types too, like markup. But no matter what, if youare writing stuff for acomputer to understand you betterbelieve that you are coding!

think of scripting as writing. batch files using. predefined functions. Then coding as writing the complete function along with the parameters to define its usage... they are both coding just one is more elaborate and detailed when it come to establishing data structure... Versus predefined methods or functions thats less time consuming, whereas all you have to do is call it.. hope it helped
