What is the differnce between timer and counter?

A counter accumulates an unknown quantity of external
events over a known interval of time.
The measurement of interest is typically frequency when the
events are periodic. If the events are random, the measurement
involves event density over time.
A timer accumulates a series events of a known interval
over an interval that is being measured.
The measurement of interest is typically the time elapsed
between two events. If the start and stop events recur
periodically, multiple measurements can be made and averaged,
allowing for increased resolution.
Counter/timers in MPU's are typically just counters that count
external events in counter mode and processor cycles in timer
mode.

What is the meaning of interval?

The word has different meanings. In music theory, the term
interval describes the difference in pitch between two
notes. Although frequently used in connection with intervals, the
term "distance" does not adequately describe the physics and
subjective effects of two interacting frequencies. Intervals may be
described as: vertical (or harmonic) if the two notes sound
simultaneously - linear (or melodic), if the notes sound
successively. Interval class is a system of labelling intervals
when the order of the notes is left unspecified, therefore
describing an interval in terms of the shortest distance possible
between its two pitch classes. An "interval" is the distance
or time between two or more occurances. For instance, the interval
between stop signs is one city block. The interval between full
moons is 28 days.
