More than beginners think... You can buy strings especially made for jazz, blues, metal... You name it! Although there's not a big difference at first, they do.
Thick strings never break and they stay in tune longer, not to mention are better for low tunings that sound awful on normal strings. But say standard on a death metal set are very hard to play at first, but some like Stevie Ray Vaughn play like that.
Thin strings break a lot quicker, don't stay in tune as long and can go in higher than standard tunings. These have a looser feel and aren't as loud.
