In what cases is the super method called in code to access members of the base class?

In Python, the super() method is used to call methods or access attributes of a base (parent) class from a subclass. This is relevant in the following cases:

• When you need to extend or override the behavior of a base class method but want to preserve part of it by calling the original implementation via super().
• To initialize the base class within the subclass constructor to ensure proper initialization of all hierarchy levels.
• When working with multiple inheritance, to correctly call methods of all parent classes following the MRO (Method Resolution Order).

Example:

class Base:
    def greet(self):
        print("Hello from Base")

class Child(Base):
    def greet(self):
        super().greet()  # call the base class method
        print("Hello from Child")

c = Child()
c.greet()

Output:

Hello from Base
Hello from Child

Thus, super() helps organize method calls correctly within class hierarchies.
