UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc1 in position 2: ordinal not in range(128)

I have tried to run this example but I have found some problems.

First, when I run the command import cPickle I have got the following error:

ImportError: No module named 'cPickle'

Searching on the web, I found this command: import _pickle as cPickle and the error ImportError: No module named 'cPickle' disappears.

However, when I run the first command Xd = cPickle.load(open("RML2016.10a.dat",'rb')) again the following error appears:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "<ipython-input-42-221bdee5fae3>", line 1, in <module> Xd = cPickle.load(open("RML2016.10a.dat",'rb')) UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc1 in position 2: ordinal not in range(128)

My python version is 3.4.3

What is the cause of this UnicodeDecodeError?

Thanks for the attention.

xd = cPickle.load(open(filename,'rb'),encoding='latin')

this dataset was made in python2 ,but you want to open it in python3 ,so you got these problems

You should use pickle instead of cPickle
