What is the difference between Scrum and Rapid Prototyping?

Isn't scrum implicitly also applying Rapid Prototyping?

Scrum is how you organise the order of work.
RP is a way to do the work.

scrum is themed off incremental development.
you build the core functionality and get something working, and then grow it. This allows you to deliver (possibly, just to testers) a partial product for evaluation with the understanding that there is 'more to come' but that the parts that were given over are nearly complete (may change a little after testing/ sign-off/ feedback). Its also about delivering the increments rapidly and consistently, with the most important features coming first, and 'extras' coming in last.

rapid prototyping means building a full interface first, with demonstrable functionality for most of the pieces of the interface that show 'how it will look and behave more or less'. Its building a near complete demo up front, which is nice for making a video / advertisement/etc even if the 'work' has not even really started yet. The idea has morphed over the decades to allow for using it as a way to produce products, but it was initially designed as a quick way to show the customer what they would be getting so any misconceptions were identified early.
