New submission from Jeroen Demeyer <j.deme...@ugent.be>:
The documentation for super() at https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/functions.html#super does not actually say what super() does. It only says "Return a proxy object that delegates method calls to a parent or sibling class of type" and then gives a bunch of use cases and examples. If there is one place where we should define exactly what super() does (as opposed to give guidance on how to use it), the stdlib reference should be it. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 344827 nosy: docs@python, jdemeyer priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: super() docs don't say what super() does type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37176> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
