Answer:
Current is the net flow of charged particles. It's measured in Amperes. Current is modeled as the flow of positively charged particles, so that if electrons flow from B to A, convention states that current flows from A to B. This is the convention because Benjamin Franklin decided it a few centuries ago.
1 A * 1 s = 1 C
1 C * 1 electron / (1.6 * 10^-19 C) = 6.25*10^18
