I'm trying to understand the code for the basic onCreate function that
is part of every application.

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
    }

I understand the @Override, and the function declaration.  It's the
second line that I am confused about:

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

First of all, what is super?  Secondly, why is it necessary to call
another onCreate inside of the overridden onCreate function.  Can
someone explain to me what is happening here?  Thanks!
