As a developer, you may sometimes need to send complex object hierarchies over a network or save the internal state of your objects to a disk or database for later use. To accomplish this, you can use a process called serialization, which is fully supported by the standard library thanks to the Python pickle module.
In this course, you’ll learn:
- What it means to serialize and deserialize an object
 - Which modules you can use to serialize objects in Python
 - Which kinds of objects can be serialized with the Python 
picklemodule - How to use the Python 
picklemodule to serialize object hierarchies - What the risks are when deserializing an object from an untrusted source
