A stream selection is like what you have in all text editors, it starts from position a on line N and continues forward or back to position b on line M and includes all the characters in between. A rectangle selection is all the characters between position a and b on lines N to M. In other words, it has width and height and it might be something like positions 5 through 10 on lines 20 to 25. Cutting or deleting a rectangle removes the text in the rectangle and shifts any text to the right of the rectangle over. It does not remove any lines although they may end up being empty. Pasting a rectangle inserts the new text with the upper-left of the rectangle at the current cursor position, shifts existing text to the right if needed, and fills with spaces on the left if a line affected by the paste is not long enough.
