Is there a way to convert a python class into bytes?

Question

I want to send a python class from one computer to the other. In order to send data, it must be in byte form. I know I can do this with dictionaries, but I was wondering if there is a way to convert a class into bytes? I'd prefer to use something other than pickle, because I need something that is fast and efficient.

Thanks

You should take a look at pickle or jsonpickle. Those are the simplest libraries for Python serialization.
