Title
Body
Why did the Python designers decide that subclasses' __init__() methods don't automatically call the __init__() methods of their superclasses, as in some other languages? Is the Pythonic and recommended idiom really like the following? class Superclass(object): def __init__(self): print 'Do something' class Subclass(Superclass): def __init__(self): super(Subclass, self).__init__() print 'Do something else'
