Tell Me The Difference

I got a really quick question

Sample vs. Interpolation

I know interpolation is a form of sampling but I am trying to clarify the difference? I'm thinking that interpolation is like when you do the same song as someone else? Like Kanye West Interpolated that Lauryn Hill Song "all falls down" because he has syleena singing it, and someone playing to the same tune .

But thats my thinking....Let me know whwat you all think!!!!

I believe interpolation is when you replay or recreate a sample using live instruments, it could also mean borrowing someone elses hook or lyric from another song.
