You can attach functions to an Object in JavaScript, but you cannot
serialize/deserialize functions inside JavaScript Objects using JSON (at
least not without extra meta-programming). Functions are not one of the
basic JSON types (Number, String, Boolean, Array, Object, null).
var a = {foo: function () {console.log('Hello');}};
JSON.stringify(a); // yields "{}"
