[Tutor] OT: Notion of persistence in Python

[McCarney, James Alexander]

If this is terribly OT, I apologize. I've been googling the web for
information on persistence. On the one hand I've come up with hits galore,
but on the other hand no one seems to be explaining what it is and its use.
Is this a notion that is not Pythonic, wrt the use of the language? Or is it
more of a functional Scheme type thing? 

Any insights and clear explanations appreciated.

Thank you.
