How to use a solenoid on a robot?

I'm a relatively new member (1 year) on a robotics team and I would like to know how solenoids can be used on a robot. I did a little research and found some industrial applications such as pinching, locking, and latching, but realistically HOW is a solenoid attached to and used on a robot?
