Both show & display command use for Debuging purposes. In case of show command we can use variable literal & string.But incase of display command we can only use string & literal.

The main difference between Show and Display commands is-
with display command we can display only one variable (or) literal (or) column name at a time.

But with show command we can display any number variables (or) literals (or) columns.

Eg: show $Name #RollNo $DOB
      Display $Name
      Display #RollNo
      Display $DOB
