Icons display text as a picture so they are able to fit on the screen and you can quickly see what each thing is.

When you hover over them usually some text appears explaining what it means.

Icons also add colour.

I am not certain what you are asking as computer GUIs are not limited to five icons. They use many dozens of different icons and may use hundreds. The important thing is that the icon suggests its function to the user.

A computer icon is a pictogram. It is placed on a computer system to help the user navigate the screen more easily.
