From the docs about the built-in function super:

super( type[, object-or-type])
Return the superclass of type. [...]
You won't get anywhere from the docs in this case, unfortunately. Start by
reading these three articles by Michele Simionato:
http://www.artima.com/weblogs/viewpost.jsp?thread=236275
and also the famous "Python super() considered harmful":
http://fuhm.net/super-harmful/
It seems like it can return either a class or an instance of a class.
Like
super( C, self)
is like casting self as superclass C.
Not really - I hope you'll understand what that means after reading the
above articles, feel free to ask again then.
However if you omit the second argument entirely you get a class.
Those "unbound" super objects are rare; you probably won't need them.
They're discussed in M.S. article, though.
