what is the difference between a workout and an exercise?

I thought both were the same until i came across a website which gave me two options :
1. Custom workout
2. Custom Exercise.

I’d bet that they’re using the terms to mean that individual activities are the components of a workout, so you can pick one specific thing (say crunches OR pull ups) and choose exercise, or a set of them (which would tell you do do crunches AND pull ups AND lunges and…) and choose workout.
