How do I serialize custom objects in Python?

You can use the pickle module to serialize custom objects in Python. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example of using pickle.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import pickle

class MyClass:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

# Create an instance of MyClass
obj = MyClass('Test')

# Serialize the object
with open('my_object.pkl', 'wb') as file:
    pickle.dump(obj, file)

# Deserialize the object
with open('my_object.pkl', 'rb') as file:
    loaded_obj = pickle.load(file)
    print(loaded_obj.name)  # Output: Test

What if I want to serialize objects with complex attributes?

You can still use pickle, but ensure that all attributes are also serializable. If you have non-serializable attributes, consider converting them to a serializable format.
