serialization

Serialization is the process of converting an object, such as a data structure or a piece of code, into a format that can be easily stored or transmitted. Think of it like packing a suitcase: you arrange everything neatly so it can fit and be transported. Once you arrive at your destination, you can unpack it back into its original form. In technology, serialization allows data to be saved to a file or sent over a network, and later reconstructed, ensuring that all information is preserved and accessible when needed.
