How to Make Child Class Inherit All Attributes From Its Parent in Python

In this example we will show how to make the child class inherit all the methods and properties from its parent using the super() function in Python.

Source Code

class Person:
    def __init__(self, name, age):
        self.name = name
        self.age = age

    def print_person_info(self):
        print('name:', self.name, 'age:', self.age)


class Student(Person):
    def __init__(self, name, age):
        super().__init__(name, age)


s = Student('John', 15)     # create an object
s.print_person_info()      # execute the print_person_info method

Output:

name: John age: 15
