super() — Advanced Examples

Returns a proxy object that delegates calls to a parent class

super() protocol implementation

Implementing the protocol that super() uses under the hood.

python

# super() - implementing the protocol
class Custom:
    def __super__(self):
        return "custom result"

obj = Custom()
print(super(obj))

Understanding the dunder methods that super() calls helps you customize behavior for your own classes.

Handling unusual inputs and edge cases.

python

# super() edge cases
print("Edge case handling for super()")

# Type checking
print(type(42))

Knowing these edge cases prevents subtle bugs in production.
