That should not happen! Basic contract is: same name = same meaning.
Either you implement a method in a parent class to let all instances of child
classes use it; with possible overriding in specific child classes. Or you have
two different methods with different names that implement different semantics.
Having two methods with the name that both need two be used on the same object
is clearly a design flaw. What do you think?
The only case is when the parent method performs a part of what child class
methods have to do. E.g a common case for __init__:
class Parent(object):
def __init__(self,arg0):
self.arg0 = arg0
class OneChild(Parent):
def __init__(self,arg0,arg1):
Parent.__init__(self,arg0)
self.arg1 = arg1
one = OneChild(0,1)
print one.arg0,one.arg1
==>
0 1
