Python super. How does it work?

Super allows you to call methods from base classes that are overridden in subclasses. But how does it work? And what does it look like? In this video you see an inheritance example and inspect super. You learn that super is not a function but a class that it allows you to override base class methods.

For videos like this one I wish I could give more than just one thumb up.

Cheers mate, great explanation! I would LOVE a real deep dive on the super() class(!) <- thanks that i know this now ;)

Love your simple explaination! Especially your tips to use inspect module, something that can be really useful to understand other complex code😀
