Select buffer bufname in another window. This runs switch-to-buffer-other-window.
C-x 4 C-o bufname RET
Display buffer bufname in another window, but don't select that buffer or that window. This runs display-buffer.

Visit file filename and select its buffer in another window. This runs find-file-other-window. See section Visiting Files.
C-x 4 d directory RET
Select a Dired buffer for directory directory in another window. This runs dired-other-window. See section Dired, the Directory Editor.
C-x 4 m
Start composing a mail message in another window. This runs mail-other-window; its same-window analogue is C-x m (see section Sending Mail).
