+\begin{funcdesc}{classmethod}{function}
+  Return a class method for \var{function}.
+
+  A class method receives the class as implicit first argument,
+  just like an instance method receives the instance.
+  To declare a class method, use this idiom:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+class C:
+    def f(cls, arg1, arg2, ...): ...
+    f = classmethod(f)
+\end{verbatim}
+
+  It can be called either on the class (e.g. C.f()) or on an instance
+  (e.g. C().f()).  The instance is ignored except for its class.
+  If a class method is called for a derived class, the derived class
+  object is passed as the implied first argument.
+
+  Class methods are different than C++ or Java static methods.
+  If you want those, see \ref{staticmethod}.

+
+  \var{fget} is a function for getting an attribute value, likewise
+  \var{fset} is a function for setting, and \var{fdel} a function

+\begin{funcdesc}{staticmethod}{function}
+  Return a static method for \var{function}.
+
+  A static method does not receive an implicit first argument.
+  To declare a static method, use this idiom:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+class C:
+    def f(arg1, arg2, ...): ...
+    f = staticmethod(f)
+\end{verbatim}
+
+  It can be called either on the class (e.g. C.f()) or on an instance
+  (e.g. C().f()).  The instance is ignored except for its class.
+
+  Static methods in Python are similar to those found in Java or C++.
+  For a more advanced concept, see \ref{classmethod}.

+\begin{funcdesc}{super}{type\optional{object-or-type}}
+  Return the superclass of \var{type}.  If the second argument is omitted
+  the super object returned is unbound.  If the second argument is an
+  object, isinstance(obj, type) must be true.  If the second argument is a
+  type, issubclass(type2, type) must be true.
+
+  A typical use for calling a cooperative superclass method is:
