<div dir="ltr"><div>I agree. Having the students write the marshalling and unmarshalling functions is important when introducing them to DP. It also a great way to demonstrate the importance inverse functions. Take a look at some of my thoughts here: <a href="http://faculty.cs.byu.edu/~jay/conferences/2013-tfp/proceedings/tfp2013_submission_1.pdf">http://faculty.cs.byu.edu/~jay/conferences/2013-tfp/proceedings/tfp2013_submission_1.pdf</a><br>

(I have found the function `make-serialize-info` in the racket/serialize<br>
library, but the documentation relies on Racket concepts that I have not<br>
yet learned.)<br>
