Writes object
into the file. This object can be read later using
readObject()
. Serializable objects are Torch
objects having a read()
and write()
method. Lua
objects such as
table
, number
or string
are also serializable.
If the object has been already written in the file, only a reference to this already saved object will be written: this saves space an speed-up writing; it also allows to keep the dependencies between objects intact.
In returns, if one writes an object, modify its member, and write the
object again in the same file, the modifications will not be recorded
in the file, as only a reference to the original will be written. See
readObject()
for an example.
