[Tutor] Is Python a scripting language

Sat Sep 7 09:18:41 CEST 2013

Hi all,
  I just wanted to know what exactly are scripting language used for and if python is one such language. Can it be used in place of say, PHP? I'm asking because I have a project in my 1st sem to design a website using PHP and since I already know a good deal of python and nothing of PHP, I was wondering if I could use python instead.

Thanks
Jatin

P.S I'm the guy who started the project euler conversation with the question :-)
