Example 2: python json file operations
import json # Imports the json file that we need
with open("jsonfile.json", "r") as jsonFile: # Opens Json file for reading
data = json.load(jsonFile) # Reads Json file using json.load() method
'''
Example Json File:
[{"name": "Bill", "age": 20},
{"name": "Mary", "age": 31},
{"name": "Jake", "age": 19}]
'''
data[1]["age"] = 32 # Alters data variable
'''
Now the data variable is:
[{"name": "Bill", "age": 20},
{"name": "Mary", "age": 32},
{"name": "Jake", "age": 19}]
'''
with open("jsonfile.json", "w") as fileJson: # Opens Json file once again
json.dump(data, fileJson) # Replaces the Json file using json.dump() method

"emails": [
{
"type": "main",

"type": "secondary",
"number": "[email protected]"
}
]
}

JavaScript Object Notation

its popular light-weight way of transfering data

the key is always String and need to be in quotation
value can be :

another json object
This is one json with 5 fields
each key value pair should be separated by comma
{
"name" : "Anna",
"age" : 18 ,
"isMarried" : false ,
"gender" : "female",
"company" : null
}
