One does not always have to write a custom class, for example: main.py import pickle r = range( 9 ) i = iter( r ) del r next( i ) next( i ) next( i ) bytes = pickle.dumps( i ) del i i = pickle.loads( bytes ) print( next( i )) del i del pickle transcript 3 -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
