Introduction

JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) is an open standard file format, and data interchange format, that uses human-readable text to store and transmit data objects consisting of attribute–value pairs and array data types (or any other serializable value)

JSON's basic data types are:

• Number: a signed decimal number that may contain a fractional part and may use exponential E notation.
• String: a sequence of zero or more Unicode characters. Strings are delimited with double-quotation marks and support a backslash escaping syntax. "This is a string 🙂"
• Boolean: either of the values true or false
• Array: an ordered list of zero or more values, each of which may be of any type. Arrays use square bracket notation with comma-separated elements. ["this","is",1,true,"array"]
• Object: a collection of name–value pairs where the names (also called keys) are strings. Objects are intended to represent associative arrays, where each key is unique within an object. Objects are delimited with curly brackets and use commas to separate each pair, while within each pair the colon ':' character separates the key or name from its value.
• [null](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nullable_type>): an empty value, using the word null

Spaces and line jumps (enter) are ignored if they are not in a string. This means you can use enter to organize your json file.

Objects provides information to the game to indicate which functions must be executed and with which variables.
