What is Public IP address
Public IP Addresses (also known as Static IP Addresses) are IP addresses that are visible to the public.Because these ip addresses are public, they allow other people to know about and access your computer, like a Web server.In some cases, you do not want people to access your computer or you want to restrict certain individuals from accessing your computer or server.
What is Private IP address
These addresses can be used on a private network, but they’re not routable through the public Internet. This not only creates a measure of much-needed security, but it also conveniently saves valuable IP address space.
Current Private IP addresses as follows
Class A
10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255
Class B
172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255
Class C
192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255

This is perhaps not a really vital distinction but a Public IP Address is NOT automatically a Static IP Address.
On my home DSL connection, for example, I have a Dynamic IP Address - it is assigned by my ISP and will sometimes change (hence Dynamic) but it is the IP address visible to the world (Public) for all computers on my network.
Within my network, of course, Class C addresses are used and information is routed to the appropriate machine using those addresses by my router.
I would say that the Public IP Address is the one broadcast or transmitted with request packets so that information may be routed accurately to your access point, router, or stand-alone computer/workstation; or broadcast so that your access point, router, or stand-alone computer/workstation may be located by other machines/services on the public network or internet.

Public IP address can be static or dynamic, depending on what you have applied with your ISP.
Most of the case a static public IP is used if the purpose is to have a fixed IP address (Web Server, FTP Server and etc.).
The private IP address above is true and for standard use your private network must follow these IP addressing.
