minus-squareheartSagan5@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up0·15 days agocat = dict(name=‘Garfield’, color=‘orange’) str(cat) Can I have that job?
minus-square_stranger_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·15 days agoI would have accepted this answer. I was hoping for json.dumps, but that’ll work.
minus-squaremel ♀@jlai.lulinkfedilinkarrow-up0·14 days agoI think json.dumps would not work if there is a datetime in the dict, right?
minus-square_stranger_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·14 days agoYeah there’s other edge cases too, like Decimal, but as long as you have those things imported when you send it through dumps it should work.
