A framework is like a library with a lot of handy dandy classes and methods in it;
the major difference is that the framework is in control and it calls back methods
in your class object which you have registered at the framework when you started your application.

That's a good way to define it. Thanks for sharing it with us.

The framework is a software component that is a part of operating systems. It provides a large body of pre-coded solutions to common program requirements, and manages the execution of programs written specifically for the framework. The .NET Framework is a key Microsoft offering, and is intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows platform.

The pre-coded solutions that form the framework's Base Class Library cover a large range of programming needs in areas including: user interface, data access, database connectivity, cryptography, web application development, numeric algorithms, and network communications. The class library is used by programmers who combine it with their own code to produce applications.
