knows how to access particular
5,488.04
3.18
properties that appear before the colon
5,489.72
3.96
and get access to what those values are
5,491.22
5.67
which appear after that colon as well so
5,493.68
5.25
JavaScript object notation otherwise
5,496.89
4.2
known as jason offers a very convenient
5,498.93
4.08
representation and this isn't exactly
5,501.09
4.8
what the JavaScript object syntax is in
5,503.01
4.5
JavaScript objects you don't strictly
5,505.89
3.3
need the quotation marks around the keys
5,507.51
3.66
you could just say origin colon and not
5,509.19
4.11
origin in quotation marks so JavaScript
5,511.17
4.35
object notation uses slightly different
5,513.3
4.44
syntax but ultimately very reminiscent
5,515.52
3.93
what we've seen in JavaScript objects
5,517.74
3.81
and JavaScript knows how to take data in
5,519.45
3.99
this form and turn it into something
5,521.55
3.81
like a JavaScript object and turns out
5,523.44
3.42
there ways of doing this in Python as
5,525.36
3.09
well in other programming languages have
5,526.86
4.41
the ability to interpret JSON data in
5,528.45
4.89
order to use it in some meaningful way
5,531.27
4.44
and another advantage of the JSON
5,533.34
4.38
representation is it is very conducive
5,535.71
4.5
to representing structures of things so
5,537.72
4.2
these values don't just need to be
5,540.21
4.38
strings or numbers they could be lists
5,541.92
4.44
or arrays that happen have a sequence of
5,544.59
3.96
possible values or they could even be
5,546.36
4.29
other javascript objects that if we
5,548.55
4.2
wanted to represent not just a city name
5,550.65
4.23
but represent the city name and the
5,552.75
4.02
airport code for example as we saw that
5,554.88
4.08
we wanted to do before I could instead
5,556.77
4.2
of having origin be equal to a string
5,558.96
4.56
like New York have origin be equal to
5,560.97
5.01
yet another JavaScript object that
5,563.52
4.89
contains a city property and a code
5,565.98
3.78
property where the city is the name of
5,568.41
3.57
the city and the code is the name of the
5,569.76
3.96
airport code and the important thing is
5,571.98
3.54
as long as I and the person I'm
5,573.72
3.66
communicating with agree upon this
5,575.52
3.99
representation agree upon what the names
5,577.38
4.11
of these keys are and what the structure
5,579.51
4.74
of this JSON payload this JSON object
5,581.49
5.04
happens to be then the person on the
5,584.25
4.2
receiving end can take this data and
5,586.53
3.6
write a program that's able to interpret
5,588.45
3.63
it and use that data in some meaningful
5,590.13
4.23
way and so we'll see an example of this
5,592.08
4.41
now of using javascript to be able to
5,594.36
3.51
communicate with yet another online
5,596.49
3.93
service in particular for accessing
5,597.87
4.8
information about currency exchange
5,600.42
3.78
rates currency exchange rates are always
5,602.67
3.36
changing we want access to the latest
5,604.2
4.2
currency exchange rate data and if there
5,606.03
4.32
is an online service an API that
5,608.4
4.14
provides access to that data in JSON
5,610.35
4.11
form in a format like this that is
5,612.54
3.87
machine readable then we can use that
5,614.46
4.77
data to write a stock a currency
5,616.41
5.16
exchange application that uses real time
5,619.23
2.88
data
5,621.57
2.79
in order to make those conversions what
5,622.11
3.839
might that data look like well the data
5,624.36
3.449
could look something like this that we
5,625.949
3.841
make a request for accessing what are
5,627.809
3.81
the exchange rates for converting from
5,629.79
4.17
US dollars of the West Newton is USD and
5,631.619
4.951
we get back a JSON object that looks
5,633.96
5.79
like this and it has a base key of USD
5,636.57
5.549
and then has a rates key that has a
5,639.75
3.659
whole bunch of rates within it so
5,642.119
2.881
conversion to euros and Japanese yen
5,643.409
4.051
great british britain pounds as well as
5,645
4.079
Australian dollars and all of the
5,647.46
3.06
various different currency exchange
5,649.079
2.58
rates for all of these different
5,650.52
3.659
currencies for example and this doesn't
5,651.659
4.351
have to be the way that this data is
5,654.179
3.121
structured but it happens to be a
5,656.01
3.33
convenient way and so long as the person
5,657.3
4.68
providing this data to me and I both
5,659.34
4.649
know what this structure is we can begin
5,661.98
3.929
to write programs that are able to use
5,663.989
3.9
that data and so will now see our
5,665.909
6.301
example of an API which is exchange
5,667.889
7.951
rates API I owe and if we go to API dot
5,672.21
6.21
exchange rates API am / latest and
5,675.84
5.069
provide a get parameter of base equals
5,678.42
6.09
US dollars then what we get back is data
5,680.909
4.851
that looks like this
5,684.51
3.45
now it's a little bit messy looking not
5,685.76
4.12
nearly as clean as we saw before but
5,687.96
3.63
it's the same exact thing just without
5,689.88
3.239
the whitespace we have a JavaScript
5,691.59
4.259
object that has a rates key that tells
5,693.119
4.891
me all right here is the exchange rate
5,695.849
4.801
