Serializing an object

Let's begin with the Serialize class, as follows:

1. The first thing we're going to need is an object for us to serialize. So let's go ahead and instantiate a new Car object. The Car class takes four strings and an integer for its variables. It takes a vehicle identification number, make, model, color, and a year. So we'll give it all of that, respectively:

        package serialization;         public class Serialize { 
            public static void main(String[] args) { 
                Car c =  new Car("FDAJFD54254", "Nisan", "Altima",                "Green", 2000); 

Once we've created our Car object, it's time to open up a file and serialize this Car for output. When we open up a file in Java, we'll use some different managers, depending on whether we'd like to write formatted ...
