what are difference between Marxism, Communism and Socialism

Sometimes I read that Communism and Marxism are the same thing, both are anarchist currents of far left, same thing for the socialism, are they synonyms or what?

Communism and Socialism are used interchangeably by Marx to refer to a classless moneyless society. Lenin started to use socialism to refer to what Marx referred to as the lower stage of communism, which is when commodity production is abolished but there will be still be some kind of limit on how goods are distributed, like labour vouchers, and used communism to refer to the higher stage of communism, which is the proper moneyless, classless etc. society.

Marxism is like a different category to those things, it's not a state of society, but like a method of understanding the world and history and that sort of thing.
