Hi,

my program builds a dictionary that I would like to save in a file.

My question is what are the simple ways to do it?

The first solution I've thought of is to transform the dictionary in a
list, with the key being the first element on that list, and the value
as the second.  Then I could use pickle to do the write and read
operations.  It seems simple and easy.

Is there a more commonly used form to do it, yet in a simple way?
