The segno segno marks a place to which we must jump when we find one of these terms:

D.S. al Coda - after jumping to the segno, we keep playing until we find the coda segno sign or "To Coda". We then jump to the Coda.
D.S. al Fine - after jumping to the segno, we keep playing until we find Fine where the piece ends.
D.C. al Coda is a variation. In this case, we do not jump to the segno, but to the first bar..

This animation shows the use of the segno, the coda and first and second endings:

Coda is also used to indicate the section that ends a piece.
