What is the difference between man and info command?

The output of processing a single file is sent to a pager by the man command by default.
info is a text-only viewer for archives in the info format output of Texinfo.
In other words: man is the traditional form of help for almost every command on your system.
info is a new way and provides a lot more information ..
something like small books.

1.
info command(Information command) : info is a good command which will describe all about the command in detail.
Its like lots and lots of pages of information will be there for a single command.
2.
man command(manual command) This will give little bit less descriptive but will provied information which you require, and most of the times each option of a command will be described in one sentence and some times in paragraphs.

Man and Info are two the mechanisms for providing documentation in the Unix and Unix-like environments (i.e.
Linux).
The main difference between Man and Info is the amount of content that they have; Info contains a whole lot more than Man does.
Some people like Info because they can get a lot more from it while others like Man because it is straight to the point and they can quickly get what they want without wasting time.

Both are Linux based command to read manual page or how to.

Good question.

 

Man is giving complete  command options and descriptions

info command also similar to man but info command listing structured level. We can easily read and understand the command options
