# serialization

Is there a way to 'skip' failed values in decoding? So given someSerialFormat.decodeFromString<List<MyType>>(text) some of the values in 'text' are bad...so say I have class MyType(val price: Double), and inside the serialized text a small number of entries have "price: Unknown", can I just skip those somehow and still get back a list of all the successes?

It's possible; you'd have to write a custom serializer to implement the logic.
