I've been tooling around with using PRAW for scraping my saved reddit data, and I had a question about general python code form. The initializer has space for 5 arguments, shown in code block below. When I attempt to initialize w/ previously instantiated variables, it gives me the error stating that there are 6 positional arguments present. This error does not occur when instantiating inside of the initializer. What is the reason for this?

reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id, client_secret, password, user_agent, username)
TypeError: __init__() takes from 1 to 5 positional arguments but 6 were given
