Python Coding challenge - Day 359| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

import json

This imports the json module, which provides functions to work with JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) data.

The json module allows encoding (serialization) and decoding (deserialization) of JSON data in Python.

data = {"a": 1}

This defines a Python dictionary data with a single key-value pair:

{"a": 1}

The key is "a" (a string).

The value is 1 (an integer).

print(json.dumps(data))

json.dumps(data):

The dumps() function converts a Python dictionary into a JSON-formatted string.

In JSON, the same dictionary would look like:

{"a": 1}

The dumps() function serializes the Python dictionary into a JSON string.

print(json.dumps(data)):

This prints the JSON-formatted string:

{"a": 1}

The output is a string, not a dictionary.

Final Output:

A. JSON string
