How do I deserialize lists in Python with standard library only?

In Python, if you want to deserialize lists using only the standard library, you can utilize the `ast.literal_eval()` function, which safely evaluates a string containing a Python literal or container display.

Here's a simple example of how to deserialize a list:


    import ast

    # This is a serialized list
    serialized_list = "[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]"

    # Deserializing the string to a Python list
    deserialized_list = ast.literal_eval(serialized_list)

    print(deserialized_list)  # Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
