pickle- how does it work

[snippsat]

Don't use pickle,use Json is't just better and you get human readable file on disk.
Data serialization is the concept of converting structured data into a format that allows it to be shared,
or stored in such a way that its original structure to be recovered.

Instead of storing stuff in singe variables think of a data structure like eg dictionary.

>>> record = dict(name='jonathan', Damage=10)
>>> record
{'Damage': 10, 'name': 'jonathan'} 

import json

record = dict(name='jonathan', Damage=10)
with open("my_file.json", "w") as j:
   json.dump(record, j)
with open("my_file.json") as j_out:
   saved_date = json.load(j_out)

print(saved_date) #--> {'Damage': 10, 'name': 'jonathan'}
