Someone care to explain what a semi-presidential system is?

The President, who is the head of state, appoints the Prime Minister (and can't dismiss him), who is the Head of Government. So the two roles are distributed between the two offices.

Is there such a thing as a parliamentary system with a Prime Minister (head of government) who is also the head of state? A parliamentary system with just a PM and no additional/separate Monarch or President is what I mean.
