Rooting is a process by which you can gain administrative privileges over your device. Administrative privileges means those features that the vendor does not want you to have. By rooting a device you get into the core of the device, basically you gain the right of a root user and you can overclock the processor, delete the pre-installed apps by the vendor to release some memory space, change the UI of the device to make its interface more prettier and many more things.
Since by rooting a device you get undue privileges over your device so the vendor does not provide any warranty for your device after it is rooted.
