Python JSON

JSON JavaScript Object Notation is a format for structuring data. It is mainly used for storing and transferring data between the browser and the server. Python too supports JSON with a built-in package called json. This package provides all the necessary tools for working with JSON Objects including parsing, serializing, deserializing, and many more. Let’s see a simple example where we convert the JSON objects to Python objects and vice-versa.

Example:

Output:

 {'id': '09', 'name': 'Nitin', 'department': 'Finance'}
<class 'dict'>


{
    "id": "09",
    "name": "Nitin",
    "department": "Finance"
}
<class 'str'>

This JSON Tutorial will help you learn the working of JSON with Python from basics to advance, like parsing JSON, reading and writing to JSON file, serializing and deserializing JSON using a huge set of JSON programs.
