Sometimes, one of our classes has a tidy representation that is nicer than the default YAML dump of attribute values. For example, the default YAML for our Blackjack Card class definitions will include several derived values that we don't really need to preserve.
The yaml module includes a provision for adding a representer and constructor to a class definition. The representer is used to create a YAML representation, including a tag and value. The constructor is used to build a Python object from the given value. Here's yet another Card class hierarchy:
from enum import Enumclass Suit(str, Enum): Clubs = "♣" Diamonds = "♦" Hearts = "♥" Spades = "♠"class Card: def __init__(self, rank: str, suit: Suit, hard: ...
