Lighting for photography - What are the difference between this three?

I need to know what is the difference between power pack strobes, monolights, and continous lighting equipment. I also need to know what are the advantages? Disadvantages? And possible uses for each besides the obvious of "lighting?" I hope that makes sense. I just think that each lighting equipment is used to photograph particular things.

Power pack strobes are a lighting kit that has the power pack separate from the strobe heads. The heads are lighter and a few heads can share the same power supply. They tend to be more expensive than the other lighting solutions.

Monolights are strobes with the power packs in with the head. They tend to be rather heavy. They are also usually cheaper than power packs.

Continuos lighting is exactly that. Photo lamps that are continuously on. They generally require filter tungsten filter compensation for film. They also get very hot! The whole room gets hot! They aren't real common anymore because of this. They are the cheapest
