JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation and is a lightweight format for data exchange.

• APIs
• Web applications
• Configuration files
• System-to-system data exchange

Python provides the built-in json module.

import json

import json

student = {'name': 'Rahul', 'age': 25}
print(json.dumps(student))

import json

data = '{"name":"Rahul","age":25}'
print(json.loads(data))

Use json.load() to read from a file and json.dump() to write to a file.
