What is the link between current and magnetism ?

Current in a wire causes a magnetic field according to the 'right-hand rule'.
The strength depends on the number and tightness of the coil, the core material it's wrapped around, the current, etc.

A current induces a magnetic field; for example, the Biot-Savart Law says
B = (mu-nought)i/(2*pi*r),
where i is the magnitude of the current, r is the distance from the current-carrying wire, and B is the magnitude of the induced magnetic field.
Another example is Faraday's Law of Induction,
E = -d(phi-B)/dt,
where phi-B is the magnetic flux through a plane area. If the area is enclosed by a conducting wire loop, the induced voltage (E) will produce a current (E/R) in the wire.
