What is the difference between cooking oil with a high smoke point & low smoke point?

Dee B asked:


What are some examples of cooking oils that are both high & low smoke point? ( I read somewhere that both vegetable oil and peanut oil both have a high smoke point). Is this true?
Is it true that if the oil has a low smoke point it may impart a bitter taste in foods?
