title: Shared configuration file format between python and C?
body: <p>I'm looking to implement a shared configuration file that will be written (output) in python, but be read (input) in C.</p>
  
  <p>The only prerequisite of this configuration file is that it can't be human readable.</p>
  
  <p>Anyone have any suggestions on what file format I should use for this project?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:  The file can't be human readable because we don't want the user to be able to modify the configuration, also, in some cases, we don't want the user to know about certain configurations.</strong>  </p>
