Can somebody tell me what is Vedanta?

Also,
    What is the purpose of "Veda" why are there 16(?) types of Veda

    what is the purpose of "Upanishad" and its types?

    What is our holy book like "Bible for Christians?"
    (AFAIK it is Bhagbat Gita but why is not "Beda" or "Ramayana" )

    What is "Puran"?

I know they all belong to Hindu scultures but what is confusing me is
the purpose of each of them. I woul appreciate if somebody would answer
to my queries.

Suman
