Difference between __repr__ and __str__ in Python3?

Can anyone explain on the "fingers" the difference between these methods, in what cases should one or the other be used?

__repr__ is the representation of an object if you just type its name into the console. It's closer to the car. Useful for debugging to find out information about an object.
__str__ - Printed when using the print method on an object. A human-friendly string representation of an object.
