JSON is an extremely simple data-interchange format. As [json.org](http://json.org) says, it is easy for humans to read and write and for machines to parse and generate.
@@ -14,7 +15,6 @@ A piece of JSON must represent either:
* A collection of name/value pairs (`{ }`). In various languages, this is realized as an object, record, struct, dictionary, hash table, keyed list, or associative array.
* An ordered list of values (`[ ]`). In various languages, this is realized as an array, vector, list, or sequence.
- an array/list/sequence (`[ ]`) or a dictionary/object/associated array (`{ }`).
JSON in its purest form has no actual comments, but most parsers will accept C-style (`//`, `/* */`) comments. Some parsers also tolerate a trailing comma (i.e. a comma after the last element of an array or the after the last property of an object), but they should be avoided for better compatibility.
