Why are make() and new() functions needed in Go? What's the difference?

Hello everyone! I started learning Go recently and I can't understand why two separate functions are needed for memory allocation: make() and new(). They both seem to create objects, but the examples from the documentation only confused me.

Here's what I'm trying to do. I want to create a slice and immediately add elements to it:

package main\n\nimport "fmt"\n\nfunc main() {\n    // Trying to create a slice via new\n    slice1 := new([]int)\n    fmt.Println(slice1)  // Outputs: &[]\n    // But how to add an element? slice1 = append(slice1, 1) doesn't work\n    // Error: first argument to append must be slice; have *[]int\n\n    // Trying to create a slice via make\n    slice2 := make([]int, 5)\n    fmt.Println(slice2) // Outputs: [0 0 0 0 0]\n    // Works, but why
