What is the difference between gross profit and net profit?

Gross profit is sales revenues minus the cost of goods sold.

The term net profit might have a variety of definitions. I assume that net profit means all revenues minus all expenses including the cost of goods sold, the selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses, and the non-operating expenses. At a corporation it may also mean after income tax expense.
