Newbie Question: Where do I find Oracle 8 Stats?

I need to get some information out of an Oracle 8 installation. Now bear with me, because I know absolutely nothing about Oracle (I'm a telecomms application specialist). However, I've been asked to put a report together which requires amongst other things, statistics about an Oracle database. The nice thing of course is I have no documentation!

Basically all I need is basic system information like all the table names that are currently being used, and basic storage and utilisation information for each table.

Is there a table that Oracle uses to hold system statistics, which can be accessed fairly easily?

Thanks,
