Trigger.new == list of new versions of Sobjects

Trigger.old==list of old versions of Sobjects

Trigger.newMap == Map of Id and new version of Sobject.

Trigger.oldMap==map of id and old version of SObject

 

=================================

I am modifying one field called country in Account object from USA to INDIA.

Now trigger.new will contain all the fields of that account where the value of country field as INDIA and trigger.old will contain USA.

Trigger.newMap will contain ---    accountid and all the fields of that account with fieldvalue of country as USA.

trigger.oldmap will contain -- accountid and all the fields of that account with fieldvalue of country INDIA

Have you read the documentation ?   https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/Content/apex_triggers_context_variables.htm

Rather than helpign for samples, it would be meaningfull if you express what you don't understand and why, so the answer could be more specific to helping you out.
