First of all a simple sentence has a independent clause:

Janet walked to school.

A compound sentence has two simple sentences inside it with a conjunction/joining word to join it:

Janet walked to school, the others rode their bikes.

A complex has an independent clause and a dependent clause inside one sentence:

Janet walked to school, but the others didn't.

A independent clause makes sense on it's own but a dependent clause doesn't.

What is the difference between complex and compound complex sentences?

Yes, there is a difference between complex and compound-complex sentences. A complex sentence is a simple sentence with a subordinant clause in front of it (also known as a fragment). A compound-complex sentence is a compound sentence with a subordinant clause in front of it. For example: Complex: As we ran onto the car, aliens attacked earth. (as is the subordinant conjunction, and "Aliens attacked Earth" is a complete sentence.) Compound-complex: As we ran onto the car, aliens attacked earth, and the military retaliated. (like te first sentence, as is still the subordinant conjunction, except I've added "The military retaliated", making it a compound-complex sentence. :D
