Can a JSON object be a list?

JSON Array Litterals Previous Next

This is a JSON string:'["Ford", "BMW", "Fiat"]'

Inside the JSON string there is a JSON array literal:["Ford", "BMW", "Fiat"]

Arrays in JSON are almost the same as arrays in JavaScript.

In JSON, array values must be of type string, number, object, array, boolean or null.

In JavaScript, array values can be all of the above, plus any other valid JavaScript expression, including functions, dates, and undefined.

JavaScript Arrays

You can create a JavaScript array from a literal:

ExamplemyArray = ["Ford", "BMW", "Fiat"]; Try it Yourself »

You can create a JavaScript array by parsing a JSON string:

ExamplemyJSON = '["Ford", "BMW", "Fiat"]';myArray = JSON.Parse(myJSON); Try it Yourself »

Accessing Array Values

You access array values by index:

ExamplemyArray[0];Try it Yourself »

Arrays in Objects

Objects can contain arrays:

Example{"name":"John","age":30,"cars":["Ford", "BMW", "Fiat"]}

You access array values by index:

ExamplemyObj.cars[0];Try it Yourself »

Looping Through an Array

You can access array values by using a for in loop:

Examplefor (let i in myObj.cars) { x += myObj.cars[i];}  Try it Yourself »

Or you can use a for loop:

Example  for (let i = 0; i < myObj.cars.length; i++) { x += myObj.cars[i];}  Try it Yourself »   Previous Next
