pybot and robot command line

I tried my best but I am not able to get an answer where I can find what are the difference between pybot and robot command line.

Is this two different options to achieve the same task i.e. executing robot test suites/cases? Or there is a special rule that says when to use pybot and when to use robot command line to run a robot test cases.

Please help me to understand this concept, an example will be very helpful. Thanks

What is Pybot used for?

pybot was the old way to run robot. It was a simple shell script on linux, and a . bat file on python. There were different startup scripts for different robot interpreters: pybot (python), jybot (jython), ipybot (ipython).

In version 3.0 it was renamed to robot, based on enhancement request 2216

There is no reason to use pybot anymore. It is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. The correct way to run tests is with robot.
