@ -36,12 +36,14 @@ supports a substantially wider range of objects than marshal.
Not all Python object types are supported; in general, only objects whose value
is independent from a particular invocation of Python can be written and read by
this module. The following types are supported: ``None``, integers,
floating point numbers, strings, bytes, bytearrays, tuples, lists, sets,
dictionaries, and code objects, where it should be understood that tuples, lists
and dictionaries are only supported as long as the values contained therein are
themselves supported; and recursive lists and dictionaries should not be written
(they will cause infinite loops).
this module. The following types are supported: booleans, integers, floating
point numbers, complex numbers, strings, bytes, bytearrays, tuples, lists, sets,
frozensets, dictionaries, and code objects, where it should be understood that
tuples, lists, sets, frozensets and dictionaries are only supported as long as
the values contained therein are themselves supported; and recursive lists, sets
and dictionaries should not be written (they will cause infinite loops). The
singletons :const:`None`, :const:`Ellipsis` and :exc:`StopIteration` can also be
marshalled and unmarshalled.
There are functions that read/write files as well as functions operating on
strings.
