<p>A role in a nested team may qualify the keyword <code>tsuper</code> (see <a href="s1.3.1.f.html" title="&sect;1.3.1.(f)&nbsp;tsuper" class="sect">&sect;1.3.1.(f)</a> above) by a type name
in order to select among different implicit super classes.
A term <code>OuterTeam.tsuper</code> evaluates to a corresponding implicit super class
within the context of the explicit super-class (here: <code>SuperOuter</code>) of the enclosing team "<code>OuterTeam</code>".
A method call <code>OuterTeam.tsuper.m()</code>
evaluates to the method version within <code>SuperOuter</code> that best corresponds to the current method containing the tsuper-call.

<div class="codecomment">
<ul>
<li>In the above example (<a href="s1.html#l1.5" class="listing">Listing 1.5</a>) line 28 selects the method version
within the superclass of <code>RoleAndTeamSub</code> (i.e., within <code>RoleAndTeam</code>),
resolving to <code>OuterTeam.RoleAndTeam.InnerRole.foo()</code>.
</li>
<li>Line 29 selects a corresponding method from the context of <code>SuperOuter</code> resolving to <code>SuperOuter.RoleAndTeamSub.InnerRole.foo()</code>
which has the same semantics as an unqualified <code>tsuper</code> call would have.
