Data Types JSON

Lesson Details:

I: Introduction

Json 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 Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.

II: Body

This section will be out the different data types in json.

Array - An ordered sequence of values. An array can contain any number of elements (zero or more), and they can be any type.

- An ordered sequence of values. An array can contain any number of elements (zero or more), and they can be any type. Boolean - Represents a logical value that can be either true or false .

- Represents a logical value that can be either or . Number - Represents a numeric value with up to 53 bits of precision.

- Represents a numeric value with up to 53 bits of precision. String - Represents textual data. A string can contain any Unicode character from the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) plus the six characters "" (U+005C), "u00AB" (U+00AB), "u200B" (U+200B), "u2028" (U+2028), "u2029" (U+2029), and "" (U+005C).

- Represents textual data. A string can contain any Unicode character from the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) plus the six characters "" (U+005C), "u00AB" (U+00AB), "u200B" (U+200B), "u2028" (U+2028), "u2029" (U+2029), and "" (U+005C). Object - An unordered collection of name/value pairs where both the names and values are arbitrary JSON values.

III: Conclusion

Since JSON is built upon the JavaScript programming language its easy to use in your application.
