python中super是什么,关于python：`__new__`中的”super()”是什么？_`

注意：使用python的flyweight实现的一部分

import weakref

class CarModel:

_models = weakref.WeakValueDictionary()

def __new__(cls, model_name, *args, **kwargs):

model = cls._models.get(model_name)

if not model:

model = super().__new__(cls)

cls._models[model_name] = model

return model

def __init__(self, model_name, air=False):

if not hasattr(self,"initted"):

self.model_name = model_name

self.air = air

self.initted=True

问题1>super()是什么意思？是指CarModel的父类吗？

问题2>我也很难理解__new__的功能是如何工作的？具体来说，下面的一行。

model = super().__new__(cls)

__new__说明：

The constructor function is called __new__ as opposed to __init__, and

is called before the obj
