The POST process detects errors,it generates a signal to indicate whaer in the process the error occured
If the post detects an error before the device drivers for the moniitor are loaaded it uses sound such as beeps to signal error
It will dependon which manufacturer of the BIOS as to what a paticular signal will mean.

The beep means you need to buy a book.

It means that every beep, there is a equivalent message or error...and this is generated by the BIOS who starts the POST (power on self test).

Different manufacturer of BIOS is available (AMI, etc..) and they have different BIOS beep code.

First of all, POST means, power on self test. there is a good beep, that means your computer is all clear and working (hardwarewise anyways), then there are beep that will require your attention, may indicate a failed hardware.
