- The default `__str___` method is inherited from `Object`, which every class in Python inherits from. (See: inheritance) [phone-number](../exercise-concepts/phone-number.md)

- a "subclass" will inherit all methods, attributes from it's parent class, and can then override methods as needed. Overriding means the logic in the parent class is not used. The `super` builtin function (not shown here) exists to allow the programmer to defer logic up the inheritance chain to the parent class when needed. [phone-number](../exercise-concepts/phone-number.md)
