• how python's super() work multiple inheritance? 11 answers

class parent1(object):     def foo(self):         print "p1 foo"      def bar(self):         print "p1 bar"   class parent2(object):     def foo(self):         print "p2 foo"      def bar(self):         print "p2 bar"    class child(parent1, parent2):     def foo(self):         super(parent1, self).foo()      def bar(self):         super(parent2, self).bar()  c = child()  c.foo() c.bar() 

the intention inherit foo() parent1 , bar() parent2. c.foo() resulting parent2 , c.bar() reulting error. please point problem , provide solution.

you call methods directly on parent classes, providing self argument manually. should give highest level of control , easiest way understand. other points of view might suboptimal though.

here's child class, rest of code stays same:

class child(parent1, parent2):     def foo(self):         parent1.foo(self)      def bar(self):         parent2.bar(self) 

running snippet described changes results in desired output:

p1 foo p2 bar
