If a super class's constructor is not called explicitly, the compiler
generates a call to the default (no args) constructor of the super
class as the very first operation in the derived class's constructor.
So super() is getting call implicitly before the statement 'this.file
= file;'. Generally, calling super() is only necessary if the super
class doesn't have a default constructor, or you want a constructor
other than the default called.
