What is difference between Metadata and data?

792290Oct 1 2010 — edited Oct 1 2010

Hi,
what is the difference between the metadata and data?
my opinion is metadata means a desc emp; ---the description of the table without any data in the table. is it right? Because when people say export only metadata of tables or metadata of schema, what does this mean?

Thanks....
