How do I read a JSON in Python?

To read a JSON file in Python, you can use the built-in json module. Here is a sample file.json file:

{
    "name": "John Doe",
    "age": 32,
    "address": {
        "street": "123 Main St",
        "city": "Anytown",
        "state": "CA"
    },
}

And here is some sample Python code for reading this file:

import json

with open('file.json', 'r') as json_file:
    data = json.load(json_file)

print(data["name"])
# Output: John Doe

The json.loads method takes in a JSON string and converts it into a Python dictionary. You can read more about the JSON library in the official Python docs .
