Save a python variable using Numpy

This just might revolutionize the way I return to projects and test functions

You can save a python variable using numpy!!!

Sure wish I would have known this a long time ago. For example, if you have a large python dictionary, you can save the dictionary, and then load it and use it later.

Example:

SomeDictionary = {'Name': np.array([1,2,3,4,5]), 'DATES':np.array([1,2,3,4,5])}

np.save('PyDict.npy', SomeDictionary)

get_the_dict = np.load('PyDict.npy').item()

What a miracle :)
