useful, such as if you print a list. The __str__() method of list calls the __repr__() for each object inside it. So it can be useful to define both, even if you decide to have them do the same thing.
If you want __str__ and __repr__ to do the same thing, you only need *one* def statement and an assignment.
def __str__(self): <whatever>
__repr__ = __str__
