How to Read and Write JSON Files in Python

Introduction
What is JSON
2. What is JSON?
Summary

Instruction

JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. As you've might guessed, it is based on a subset of the JavaScript programing language.

JSON is a text-based format that humans can read quite easily. Its structure is familiar to C-family programmers, those who code in C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, etc. The language-independent JSON format is widely used as a data-interchange format. Because of this, JSON is used by many RESTful APIs (APIs that work over HTTP requests).

JSON files are often used as data inputs and outputs.
