Can you explain the concept of calls and puts in the stock market for dummies?

In the Stock Market, a "call" is an option that gives you the right to buy a stock at a specific price within a certain time frame. On the other hand, a "put" is an option that gives you the right to sell a stock at a specific price within a certain time frame. Calls are used when you think a stock will go up, while puts are used when you think a stock will go down.
