At first glance, XML appears to have the most intimidating syntax, which adds a lot of noise. JSON greatly improves the situation in terms of simplicity, but it still buries information beneath mandatory delimiters. On the other hand, YAML uses Python-style block indentation to define the structure, making it look cle...

On the surface, this looks like a convenient way of converting timestamps to the number of elapsed seconds.

In contrast to flow scalars, block scalars allow for changing how to deal with the newlines, trailing newlines, or indentation. For example, the pipe (|) indicator placed right after the property name preserves the newlines literally, which can be handy for embedding shell scripts in your YAML file:
