Let’s see how you can convert a string to json.

Method # 1: dictate an object to a string object using json.loads

# Python code for demonstration
# convert string to json
# using json.loads

import json

# initializing the json object

ini_string = { ’nikhil’ : 1 , ’akash’ : 5 ,

’manjeet’ : 10 , ’akshat’ : 15 }

# print initial json

ini_string = json.dumps (ini_string)

print ( "initial 1st dictionary" , ini_string)

print ( " type of ini_object " , type (ini_string))

# string conversion and in json

final_dictionary = json. loads (ini_string)

# print the final result

print ( "final dictionary" , str (final_dictionary))

print ( "type of final_dictionary" , type (final_dictionary))

Exit :

initial 1st dictionary {’manjeet’: 10, ’nikhil’: 1, ’akshat’: 15, ’akash’: 5}
type of ini_object "type ’dict’"
final dictionary {’nikhil’: 1, ’manjeet’: 10, ’akshat’: 15, ’a kash ’: 5}
type of final_dictionary "type’ str ’& gt;

Method # 2: a str object to dictate an object using eval ()

Exit :

initial 1st dictionary {’nikhil’: 1, ’akash’: 5, ’manjeet’: 10, ’akshat’: 15}
type of ini_object "class’ str ’& gt;
final dictionary {’ nikhil ’: 1,’ manjeet ’: 10,’ akash ’: 5,’ akshat ’: 15}
type of final_dictionary "class’ dict’"
