7(b). Xml vs Json














let us consider the example so that we will get the idea what is xml and json

these both are content type


What is JSON?

  • JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation
  • JSON is a lightweight data-interchange format
  • JSON is language independent *
  • JSON is "self-describing" and easy to understand







  • The fundamental difference between XML and JSON is that XML is a meta-language and JSON is a markup language
  • That is, XML syntax is designed specifically to have no inherent semantics. 
  • Particular element names don't mean anything until a particular processing application processes them in a particular way. 
  • By contrast, JSON syntax has specific semantics built in: stuff between {} is an object, stuff between [] is an array, etc.
  • A JSON parser, therefore, knows exactly what every JSON document means. 
  • An XML parser only knows how to separate markup from data.
