Save model into one of non-SBML non-standard files:
- JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) representation. This format was created in CobraPy for interoperability with [escher](https://escher.github.io/).
- YAML (YAML Ain’t Markup Language) representation. This format is more compact and provides more human readable model representations and better suits for calculation of automatic diffs between models.
- Matlab is created for interoperability between cobrapy and the [MATLAB cobra toolbox](http://opencobra.github.io/cobratoolbox/). MATLAB has its own “.mat” format for storing variables.
- Type: Pythonmodelcobrapy Model object from other FBA components
