Grep is mainly a command-line regular expression matcher. If you don't know regular expressions, start out using -F (see below) for fixed string matches. If you're looking to learn, the -P PCRE (perl-like) regular expressions are IMO both the most useful and the easiest to get the hang of.

Different regex types
There are many more options. Some of the most notable are -i (case insensitive), -v (match lines that DON'T match the pattern), -l (list only the names of files that contain a match), and -R (recursive).
