Object-Oriented Languages and Scripting

Scripting

Scripting languages are usually used for gluing together pre-existing component and automation of manual work. They provide features like dynamic typing and extensibility that make them easy to learn. Scripting languages grew out of the need to shorten the traditional edit-compile-link-run process. As such, most of the scripting languages today are interpreted. However, this is not a defining feature; there are scripting languages that are compiled.

Are there any advantages to a scripting language that is not object oriented?
