In JavaScript, there's a distinction between a JavaScript object and a JSON object, although they may seem similar.
JavaScript Object:
const detail = { "name": "Vipin", "age": 21 };
Here, detail
is a JavaScript object. It's defined using object literal notation, denoted by curly braces {}
. This object has two properties: "name"
with the value "Vipin"
and "age"
with the value 21
. This is a native JavaScript object.
JSON Object:
const detail = '{ "name": "Vipin", "age": 21 }';
Here, detail
appears to be a JSON-like string. JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation, and it's a lightweight data-interchange format. The provided example, however, is a string literal, not a JSON object. It's important to note that JSON is primarily a data format used for exchanging data between a server and a client, and it's a subset of JavaScript object literal notation.
To use the JSON data, you need to parse it:
const detail = '{ "name": "Vipin", "age": 21 }';
const parsedDetail = JSON.parse(detail);
After parsing, parsedDetail
becomes a JavaScript object equivalent to { "name": "Vipin", "age": 21 }
.
In summary, while JavaScript objects and JSON objects share some similarities, they are not the same. JSON is a text format that is completely language-independent but uses conventions familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, while JavaScript objects are native data structures in JavaScript itself.
Please update the readme
Javascript Object const detail = { "name": "Vipin", "age": 21 };
JSON Object const detail = '{ "name": "Vipin", "age": 21 }';
JSON object is string. After parse they are separated into key/value.
