In general, the super keyword can be used to call overridden methods, access hidden fields or invoke a superclass's constructor. In fact, multiple inheritance is the only case where super() is of any use I would not recommend using it with classes using linear inheritance, where it's just useless overhead. As for chaining super::super, as i mentionned in the question, i have still to find an interesting use to that For now, i only see it as a hack, but it was worth mentioning, if only for the differences with java (where you can't chain super). Super e>) says that it's some type which is an ancestor (superclass) of e
Extends e>) says that it's some type which is a subclass of e (in both cases e itself is okay.) so the constructor uses the Extends e form so it guarantees that when it fetches values from the collection, they will all be e or some subclass (i.e I'm currently learning about class inheritance in my java course and i don't understand when to use the super() call I found this example of code where super.variable is used How do i call the parent function from a derived class using c++
Within each class there is a print Can't be called from main method I wrote the following code When i try to run it as at the end of the file i get this stacktrace 'super' object has no attribute do_something class parent So i was following python's super considered harmful, and went to test out his examples
The one with super has greater flexibility The call chain for the methods can be intercepted and functionality injected.
