This is my first module

Simple JSON Parser

A simple JSON parser implemented in Python without using any external libraries. This parser can handle a limited subset of JSON, including strings, numbers, objects, arrays, booleans, and null values.

Features

• Parses JSON strings into Python data structures (dictionaries and lists).
• Supports basic JSON data types: strings, numbers, objects, arrays, booleans, and null.
• No external dependencies; written entirely in Python.

Installation

You can simply copy the JSONParser class into your Python project. There is no need for installation via pip or any other package manager.

Usage

To use the JSON parser, create an instance of the JSONParser class with a JSON string and call the parse() method. Here's an example:

from json_parser import JSONParser  # Adjust the import based on your file structure

json_text = '{"name": "John", "age": 30, "is_student": false, "courses": ["Math", "Science"], "address": null}'
parser = JSONParser(json_text)
parsed_data = parser.parse()

print(parsed_data)

Error Handling

The parser raises ValueError for various issues, such as:

Unexpected end of input Invalid JSON values Unterminated strings Missing colons or commas in objects and arrays

Limitations

This parser is a basic implementation and may not handle all edge cases or complex JSON structures. It does not support JSON features like comments or special escape sequences in strings.
