===== Transaction serialization&#x2014;outputs
((("transactions", "outputs and inputs", "structure of")))((("outputs and inputs", "structure of")))When transactions are transmitted over the network or exchanged between applications, they are _serialized_. Serialization is the process of converting the internal representation of a data structure into a format that can be transmitted one byte at a time, also known as a byte-stream. Serialization is most commonly used for encoding data structures for transmission over a network or for storage in a file. The serialization format of a transaction output is shown in <<tx_out_structure>>.
