A folder on your computer holds programs within them as an icon is a program. Look at it like this: In school you had a folder and inside that folder was your math paper (program), Reading paper (program), Spelling paper (program). If you took one of those out and put it on your desk then you could get to it faster without having to go into your folder.

The icon is the quick link that takes you to the actual folder where data is stored.
