What is the __reduce__ magic method for?

Question

Python

Hey!
I read here https://docs.python.org/3/library/pickle.html?high... but didn't get it.

Answer 1

In short, it returns the current state of the object so that you can create exactly the same one, for example, using copy.copy. Or serialize it into bytes (pickle), and then get it from there to get an object no worse than the one you serialized.
