Object Serialization and Deserialization In this assignment, you will create a class that you will need for the upcoming Super Ghost project. Please do your best job on this assignment as early as possible. You will depend on the code in this assignment in your final Super Ghost Project.

Create a class named MyIOManager that implements the accompanying interface IOManager. MyIOManager should adequately implement all methods in the IOManager such that it accepts and returns the defined parameters and throws the outlined exceptions correctly. When you submit your assignment to Grader Than only submit your MyIOManager.java file.

Please read the programmatic documentation of the IOManager interface to gain an understanding of what each function should do. This assignment will test your knowledge of serializing and deserializing a binary file, implementing interfaces, and throwing exceptions.
