[debian-knoppix] Difference beetween .deb / .tar.gz

["Coume" <coume.mailinglists@lubox.com>]

Hello,
I'm a real newbie regarding linux... And what is the difference between a file in *.tar.gz and *.deb??
Do I install then the same way??
Or is it something really different and uncomparable??

Thanks
Coume
