6,620 Points@post.comments.create(comment_params) Vs. @post.comments.new(comment_params)
Why do we use @post.comments.create(comment_params) instead of @post.comments.new(comment_params)?

Treehouse Teachernew creates a model object without saving it to the database. create creates the model object and then also immediately saves it.
If you want to create a model object but need to make additional changes to it before saving it, you want new instead of create.
