Why are you trying to learn WPF? I'm not saying it's a bad idea, but based on your question, it almost sounds like you want to learn it in order to do a presentation. I would advise learning to use Power Point for something like that.

As for the purpose of WPF, it's a framework that is used to build an GUI based application. There are plenty of other frameworks that do this, but one of the things that sets WPF apart is that it uses DirectX to draw the GUI on your screen. This reduces the processing power needed to draw certain items by using Vector based graphics.
