What's the difference between corn four and corn starch?

In Australia, cornstarch is known as corn flour. This can sometimes cause confusion as in other parts of the world, corn flour refers to a finer flour made from whole corn kernels, while in Australia it refers specifically to the starch derived from corn. So if a recipe from another country calls for cornstarch, you should use corn flour instead when cooking in Australia.
