?json.loads says that the method is for deserializing "s", with "s"
being a string, bytes, or bytearray.
In [24]: type(text)
Out[24]: str
So "text" seems to be a string. Why does json.loads return an error?
Because, although text is the right type, it does not contain a
valid json string.
Thank you for the reply, John. I am not familiar with how to check
validity for json. I typed the example into notepad++ and saved as .json
and didn't take any further steps after that. I'll look into that.
