Event: An event is an action or occurrence detected by the program that may be handled by

Event Handling: Any operating environment that supports graphical user interfaces
constantly monitors events such as keystrokes or mouse clicks. The operating environment
reports these events to the programs that are running. Each program then decides what, if
anything, to do in response to these events. This is called event handling.
