How to Serialize a Python Object to Pickle Bytes in Memory
Serialize a Python object to pickle bytes in memory with pickle.dumps, then deserialize it back with pickle.loads and verify the roundtrip.
import pickle
class Person:
def __init__(self, name, age, skills):
self.name = name
self.age = age
self.skills = skills
def main():
person = Person("Alice", 30, ["Python", "SQL", "Docker"])
# Serialize to bytes in memory
pickle_bytes = pickle.dumps(person)
print(…
How to Pickle a Python Dict and Load It Back
Save a dictionary to a binary file with pickle.dump() and reload it with pickle.load(), showing the round trip and type preservation.
import pickle
data = {"name": "Alice", "scores": [87, 92, 95], "active": True}
print("Original dict:", data)
with open("safe_demo.pkl", "wb") as f:
pickle.dump(data, f)
with open("safe_demo.pkl", "rb") as f:
loaded = pickle.load(f)
print("Loaded dict:", loaded)
print("Type:", type(loaded).__name__)
print(…
How to Save and Load a Mock Model with Pickle and joblib in Python
Serialize a custom machine learning model to a .joblib file with joblib.dump, reload it, and run a prediction with joblib.load.
import joblib
from pathlib import Path
class MockModel:
def __init__(self, weights):
self.weights = weights
def predict(self, features):
return sum(w * f for w, f in zip(self.weights, features))
def save_model_pickle(model, filepath):
with open(filepath, "wb") as f:
joblib.dump(…
