So thanks, all for the help.
Turns out that the solution is simple enough, as are most solutions in
Python:
PHP:
parent::__construct(args)
does translate to the Python:
super(ParentClass, self).__init__(args)
The example, that of referencing an object's creator object (if that's

Unless they are coding GUIs? I guess it's pretty common that GUI
controls are contained in other controls called parents. At least
that's how it's done in wxPython.

While I'm sure you could find a "clever" way to do this, passing
in "parent" explicitly is the "proper" way to do it. Once in a
while, you might actually want some other object than the l

Good you clarified that, because "parent" definitely isn't used that way
by most other people here. And, in fa
Farshid,
This is a great help, thanks.
The second point won't work, though, because by parent class I mean,
simply, the object that created the current object, *not* the class the
current class is based on.
So, for example:
class A(object):
def __init__(self):
self.thing = Thing()

Anyone familiar with PHP? I'm trying to make a translation. In PHP you
can get the current object's name by going like this:
get_class(item) == 'ClassName'
I've tried type(item), but since I can't be sure if I'll be in __main__
or as a child object, I can't guarantee what that value will return,
