What is the difference between Process and program? - Question & Answer Book

 

Answer:- A program is a set of instructions that are to perform a designated task, whereas the process is an operation that tasks the given instruction and performs the manipulations as per the code, called ‘execution of instructions’. A process is entirely dependent on a ‘program’.

A process is a module that executes modules concurrently. They are separate loadable modules. Whereas the program performs the task directly relating to an operation of a user like word processing executing presentation software etc.
