JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for
humans to read and write It is easy for machines to parse and generate It is based on a subset
of the JavaScript Programming LanguageThe JSON format was inspired by the object and
array format used in the JavaScript language
Json codes data as key- value pairs. JSON has the advantage that it maps directly to some
combination of dictionaries and lists. And since nearly all programming languages have
something equivalent to Python’s dictionaries and lists, JSON is a very natural format to have
two cooperating programs exchange data.
