How to Read and Write JSON Files in Python

Introduction
Reading JSON files
6. JSON with logical values
Summary and Review

Instruction

Great! We now know that the data in a JSON file looks like this:

{
  "first_name": "Emma",
  "last_name": "Jones",
  "age": 43,
  "is_manager": true
}

After we load this JSON file into Python, we'll get a corresponding Python dictionary:

{
  'first_name': 'Emma',
  'last_name': 'Jones',
  'age': 43,
  'is_manager': True
}

Any logical value in JSON is loaded as the corresponding logical value in Python. We can test the logical values from JSON in the same way as any other logical value in Python:

if not employee['is_manager']:
  print('This is not a manager')

Exercise

Check if customer2 is a VIP. Use the is_VIP field. If customer2 is a VIP, print:

This client is a VIP.
