Wire rope has finer strands and more of them. Because of this, rope is more flexible and stronger. Rope tends to unroll and stranded wire will stay bent.

It is a reference for the preparation for soldering a stranded wire so you get a good joint. You twist the strands together, heat the wire with a soldering iron or gun and then apply a small amount of solder on the tip of the wire and it melts into the strands. Then you can solder the wire to another like wire or to a terminal or whatever. You basically reheat the wire to make connection and can add more solder as needed.Additional informationTinning is also useful if the wire is to be put in a "screw lug". The term "tinning" comes from the fact that older solder contains lead and tin. Some of the newer solder is supposed to be lead free.
Wire made of many strands is 'cable'
This just means a wire with a solid central core, ie made from one solid length of copper or aluminium, as opposed to a wire made from many thin strands

The surgical wire strands can be used when it comes to survival.

the golden gate bride is made out of 27 572 strands of wire on each cable
Most of the current travels on the surface of the wire. The more strands the more surface area and the lower the effective resistance.
The description you show seems to match the description for 16AWG wire made up of 259 strands of 40AWG, Rope construction with bunch stranded groups. Similar to concentric for the groups of strands. The wire is made up of 7 Bunches of 37 strands of 40AWG strands to make a 16AWG wire. The description should be 16AWG(259/40) construction is 7x37/40. The SWG more than likely stands for Standard Wire Gauge. This construction is a high strand count which would make it flexible. You can learn more about stranding and view a wire gauge chart on the link below.
It really depends on who you ask and what group or specialist is making the recommendation, the kind of wire, how many head of cattle in the pasture and what type of fencing it is. The recommendations generally range from 3-6 strands of wiring in a cattle fence.

Electricity primarily travels along the outside of the conductor. So the more "strands" you have the better in most instances.
