&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;In [[computer programming]], '''event-driven programming''' is a [[programming paradigm]] in which the flow of the program is determined by events such as user actions (mouse clicks, key presses), sensor outputs, or messages from other programs/threads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Event-driven programming is the dominant paradigm used in graphical user interfaces and other applications (e.g. [[JavaScript]] [[Web application|web applications]]) that are centered on performing certain actions in response to user input.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In an event-driven application, there is generally a main loop that listens for events, and then triggers a callback function when one of those events is detected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In embedded systems the same may be achieved using hardware interrupts instead of a constantly running main loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Event-driven programs can be written in any programming language, although the task is easier in languages that provide high-level abstractions, such as [[Closure (computer programming)|closures]].&lt;br /&gt;
