What's difference between thread and process?..

Answer / Chandan Verma

A process is an instance of a program that is currently running. It includes the program code, data, system resources such as open files and network connections, and the program counter that keeps track of which instruction to execute next. A thread is a smaller sequence of execution within a single process. Threads share the same memory space and resources.
