ValueError: unsupported pickle protocol: 3, python2 pickle can not load the file dumped by python 3 pickle?

You should write the pickled data with a lower protocol number in Python 3. Python 3 introduced a new protocol with the number 3 (and uses it as default), so switch back to a value of 2 which can be read by Python 2. Check the protocolparameter in pickle.dump. Your resulting code will look like this. There is no protocolparameter in pickle.load because pickle can determine … Read more
