How to kill a process in a terminal inside emacs
When I code, I usually use multiple buffers in emacs. Some buffers with my code, and a buffer with a terminal emulator (M-x term), There I compile, execute interpreters, etc.
When I get an infinite loop in some computation, I cannot kill my process (As one could do with a normal terminal with Ctrl-C), since obviously the terminal embedded in emacs doesn't get the interrupt.
Is there a way to do this?

For me, Ctrl-C Ctrl-C sends a ^C to the terminal and I'm able to interrupt a running program.

Using GNU Emacs 25.2.2 in Terminator. Ctrl-C+Ctrl-C didn't work, but Ctrl-x k (which calls kill-buffer) did. But, you lose the buffer...

ansi-term instead of term, then you should use C-x C-c (no, that won't exit your emacs)– pizdelect
