use of super

[harryos]

hi
I was going thru the weblog appln in practical django book by
bennet .I came across this

class Entry(Model):
def save(self):
dosomething()
super(Entry,self).save()

I couldn't make out why Entry and self are passed as arguments to super
().Can someone please explain?
thanks
harry

Does <http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html#super> make
anything clearer?
