@ -124,7 +124,7 @@ The important points to remember are:
The object returned by ``super()`` also has a custom :meth:`__getattribute__`
method for invoking descriptors. The call ``super(B, obj).m()`` searches
``obj.__class__.__mro__`` for the base class ``A`` immediately following ``B``
and then returns ``A.__dict__['m'].__get__(obj, A)``. If not a descriptor,
and then returns ``A.__dict__['m'].__get__(obj, B)``. If not a descriptor,
``m`` is returned unchanged. If not in the dictionary, ``m`` reverts to a
search using :meth:`object.__getattribute__`.
