Q2. DIFFERENCE BTW LATCH AND FLIPFLOP
Ans. 
A latch is level sensitive and a flip-flop is edge sensitive. Latch changes output as soon as input changes, while flip-flop changes output only on clock edge.
• Latch is level triggered, while flip-flop is edge triggered

• Latch changes output as soon as input changes, while flip-flop changes output only on clock edge

• Latch is asynchronous, while flip-flop is synchronous

• Examples: SR latch, D latch for latch; D flip-flop, JK
