<p>I'm trying to understand how to use the two methods. I know that <code>__new__</code>  is used to create an object, while <code>__init__</code> to initialize. But I'm not sure what happens when I create an object.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Does it mean that <code>__new__</code> and <code>__init__</code> must have the same parameters?</p></li>
<li><p>What happens if I don't use the same parameters?</p></li>
</ol>
