The two types of compound sentences are coordinated compound sentences, where independent clauses are joined by a coordinating conjunction, and subordinated compound sentences, where independent clauses are joined by a subordinating conjunction.
Compound sentences have more than one independent clause. Complex sentences have dependent clauses. Compound-complex sentences have both. (simple) My dog ate my homework. (compound) My dog ate my homework, so I had to think up a good excuse. (complex) My dog ate the homework that I left on the chair. (compound-complex) My dog ate the homework that I left on the chair, but fortunately I still had the outline that I had written.
