What's the difference between computer and interrupt?

Computer


Definition:

  • (n.) One who computes.

  • (20) Computed tomography does not allow differentiation between these lesions and surrounding normal tissues.

Interrupt


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To break into, or between; to stop, or hinder by breaking in upon the course or progress of; to interfere with the current or motion of; to cause a temporary cessation of; as, to interrupt the remarks speaking.
  • (v. t.) To divide; to separate; to break the monotony of; as, the evenness of the road was not interrupted by a single hill.
  • (p. a.) Broken; interrupted.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Microvascular anastomoses were performed on rat common carotid arteries using either continuous or interrupted sutures.
