what is the difference between multitasking and
multithreading?

Answer Posted / divya

multitasking ::: is a method by which multiple tasks, also
known as processes, share common processing resources such
as a CPU. With a multitasking OS, you can simultaneously run
multiple applications. Multitasking refers to the ability of
the OS to quickly switch between each computing task to give
the impression the different applications are executing
multiple actions simultaneously.

Multithreading ::: extends the idea of multitasking into
applications, so you can subdivide specific operations
within a single application into individual threads. Each of
the threads can run in parallel. The OS divides processing
time not only among different applications, but also among
each thread within an application.
