What is interrupt?

Answer Posted / deeptirekha biswal

to break the sequence of operation. while the cpu is
executing a program, an 'interrupt' breaks the normal
sequence of execution of instructions & diverts into some
other program called Interrupt Service Routine(ISR).After
executing ISR the control is transfered back again to the
main program which was being executed at the time of
interruption.
