Newbie lost again - ND filters

[Fatal Error]

Read that there are 2 types of ND filters.

i) ND graduated filters
ii) ND standard filters

Aka a Graduated Neutral Density, also referred to as a split ND filter, it is like an ND filter except half of it is of neutral density itself and half being optically clear. The demarcation can either be a well defined hard edge or a soft edge. In some cases the entire filter shows a graduation in density , being darkest on one end all the way to lightest on the other end.

ND filters are not demarcated. The entire filter is darkened.
