Python inheritance: TypeError: object.__init__() takes no parameters

Question

I get this error:

TypeError: object.__init__() takes no parameters 

when running my code, I don't really see what I'm doing wrong here though:

class IRCReplyModule(object):

    activated=True

    moduleHandlerResultList=None

    moduleHandlerCommandlist=None

    modulename=""

    def __init__(self,modulename):

        self.modulename = modulename

class SimpleHelloWorld(IRCReplyModule):

     def __init__(self):

            super(IRCReplyModule,self).__init__('hello world')

Answer 1

You are calling the wrong class name in your super() call:

class SimpleHelloWorld(IRCReplyModule):

     def __init__(self):

            #super(IRCReplyModule,self).__init__('hello world')

            super(SimpleHelloWorld,self).__init__('hello world')
