        self.name = personName  
  
    def showName(self):  
        print(self.name)  
  
class Student(Person): 				# Student inherits from Person superclass
    studentClass = ""  

    def __init__(self, studentName, studentClass):  
        Person.__init__(self, studentName)		# superclass constructor
        self.studentClass = studentClass  		# Student class specific
  
    def getStudentClass(self):  
        return self.studentClass  
  
  
person1 = Person("Dave")
person1.showName()                  # Dave
