Inheriting aiml in python 2.7

Question

I am trying to inherit aiml kernel through class approach

import aiml

class Kern(aiml.Kernel):
    def __init__(self):
       super(Kern, self).__init__(self)

k = Kern()

aiml.Kernel is a class but still I am getting the below error when I am trying to instantiate the super class from which Kern has inherited

super(Kern, self).__init__(self)
TypeError: must be type, not classobj

Please let me know what is the mistake that am making

Answer 1

super does not accept self as argument. Get rid of both self in the line. Following shall work fine

super(Kern).__init__()
