# `kumo.toml_encode(VALUE)` Attempts to encode VALUE as its TOML equivalent, and returns that value serialized as a string. This is logically the opposite of [kumo.toml_parse](toml_parse.md). See also [kumo.toml_load](toml_load.md), [kumo.toml_parse](toml_parse.md) and [kumo.toml_encode_pretty](toml_encode_pretty.md)
