Illustration includes example but not vice versa.

Illustration is explaining the example.

Illustration shows how the example behaves and useful at times I guess.

Correct me friends if i am wrong.

Thank you.

Illustration can be defined as to clarify the meaning of some word or a thing..i mean it is an explanation given to a particular word or a sentence in a practical way..

Example can be described as a synonym of illustration..

if u asked any question in an interview ..and if u said something new regarding that question asked then the interviewer may ask u to illustrate it.. means to describe it in detail..

if he asks for example..u will provide an evidence to understand it..

i hope u got it..
