The wrap is essentially just a container. Keeps things nicely in a box. Sometimes it's useful to nest divs, sometimes its not. For example, if you have a page where you want all the content centered, you'd have #wrap with "padding: 0 auto;".

Here's a site and its css file that uses some floats. Might help you, might confuse you. If you'd like I could probably find a simpler example:

Note in the css:

#navigation {
	width: 171px;
	position: relative;
	float: left;
	}
#content {
	width: 601px;
	position: relative;
	float: left;
	}
