[python] What is the difference between __str__ and __repr__?

>>> print(decimal.Decimal(23) / decimal.Decimal("1.05"))
21.90476190476190476190476190
>>> decimal.Decimal(23) / decimal.Decimal("1.05")
Decimal('21.90476190476190476190476190')

When print() is called on the result of decimal.Decimal(23) / decimal.Decimal("1.05") the raw number is printed; this output is in string form which can be achieved with __str__(). If we simply enter the expression we get a decimal.Decimal output — this output is in representational form which can be achieved with __repr__(). All Python objects have two output forms. String form is designed to be human-readable. The representational form is designed to produce output that if fed to a Python interpreter would (when possible) reproduce the represented object.
