Calling method in parent class from subclass methods in Ruby

Question

I\'ve used super to initialize parent class but I cannot see any way of calling parent class from subclass methods.

I know PHP and other languages do ha

Answer 1

The super keyword calls a method of the same name in the super class:

class Foo
  def foo
    "#{self.class}#foo"
  end
end

class Bar < Foo
  def foo
    "Super says: #{super}"
  end
end

Foo.new.foo # => "Foo#foo"
Bar.new.foo # => "Super says: Bar#foo"
