3. What is JSON?
• Lightweight data-interchange format
• Subset of JavaScript
• Easy for humans to read and write
• Easy for machines to parse and generate
• Language independent
JSON

4. Properties of JSON
• Human and machine readable format.
• Strict syntax and parsing requirements.
• Represents the most general computer science
data structures like records, lists and trees.
JSON

5. Data Interchange
• JSON is a simple, common representation of
data.
• Communication between servers and browser
clients.

6. Where to use JSON?
• It is useful when writing any kind of JavaScript-based
application.
• I t is used primarily to transmit data between a
server and web application.
• JSON with PHP
• JSON with Perl
• JSON with Python
• JSON with JavaScript

• json_encode
• json_decode
• json_last_error

• from_json
• convert_blessed

8. Where to use JSON?
• JSON with Python
JSON
• encode
• decode
• JSON with Javascript
• JSON.stringify
• JSON.parse

9. Why JSON ?
• JSON is syntax for storing and exchanging text
information.
• The JSON text format is syntactically identical
to the code for creating JavaScript objects.
• Because of this similarity, instead of using a
parser, a JS program can use the built-in
functions and execute JSON data to produce
native JavaScript objects.

10. Why JSON ?
• 3 Reasons why you should use JSON
• Clean data
• Efficiency
• Scalability
• As compared to XML, JSON is
JSON
• smaller
• faster and
• easier to parse

11. How to use it..?
• JSON syntax is a subset of JavaScript syntax
• Json Syntax Rules
• Data is in name/value pairs
• Data is separated by commas
• Curly braces hold objects
• Square brackets hold arrays
• JSON Name/Value Pairs
• JSON data is written as name/value pairs
• Example
• "firstName" : "John"
JSON

12. How to use it..?
• JSON values can be
 A number (integer or floating point)
 A string (in double quotes)
 A Boolean (true or false)
 An array (in square brackets)
 An object (in curly brackets)
 null
• JSON Objects
 JSON objects are written inside curly brackets
 Objects can contain multiple name/values pairs
• Example
{ "firstName":"John" , "lastName":"Doe" }

15. JSON vs. XML
JSON
JSON
• JSON is a text-based
format.
• JSON data types: string,
number, array, Boolean.
• JSON does not contain
start and end tags.
• JSON include arrays.
• JSON does not have
support for Namespaces.
XML
• XML is a Markup
Language.
• XML data are all string.
• Xml contain start and end
tags.
• XML doesn't include
arrays.
• XML supports
Namespaces.

<name>Ali</name>
<age>20</age>
<gender>male</gender>
</student>
<student>
<name>Bilal</name>
<age>21</age>
<gender>male</gender>
</student>
</students>

{“name”: “Ali”, “age”: “20”,
“gender”: “Male”},
{“name”: “Bilal”, “age”: “21”,
“gender”: “Male”}
