ParadigmJavaScript is a multi-paradigm language that supports functional, object-oriented, and imperative programming.ActionScript is an object-oriented language that supports imperative programming.
TypingJavaScript is a dynamically typed language, which means that variable types are determined at runtime.ActionScript is a statically typed language, which means that variable types are determined at compile time.
PerformanceJavaScript performance can vary depending on the implementation and the browser used.ActionScript performance is generally faster than JavaScript because it is compiled to bytecode.
