Superclass static method name from subclass

[Thomas Passin]

You can define a classmethod in SubClass that seems to do the job:

class SuperClass(object):
       @staticmethod
       def spam():  # "spam" and "eggs" are a Python tradition
           print('spam from SuperClass')

class SubClass(SuperClass):
     @classmethod
     def eggs(self):
         super().spam()

SubClass.eggs()  # Prints "spam from SuperClass"

If you try to make it a @staticmethod, though, you would need to provide 
a class argument to super(), but a staticmethod does not pass one in.
