How to Read .Json files in Python - #LearningPython 17
2Today I learned a bit more about Python, and how I can read .json files.
The use of json files is apparently extremely common, since it's very easy to a computer to read and it is very compact, meaning it's even easier to process, and because it's that used, almost all programming languages have an easy way of reading json files, and Python is no exception.
Basically I can read a json file just as I can a normal .txt file.:
import json
with open("file.json", "r") as arq_json:
in this code above I am opening a .json file with the intent of Reading it and save this information as arq_json, and then I can process it. A interesting thing to note is that I NEED to specify the 'import json' part or it will not recognize it, probably because json does work a bit different than other extensions, and it shows, since if you want to extract the info from the json file, you need to:
info = json.load(arq_json)
The 'weird' part here is the .load part, since until now we just used .read, .readline or .readlines, but here I do a .load, which apparently loads ALL the info inside, which shows me that .json aren't SUPPOSED to be super long or big.
