Parsing JSON Strings
The Importance of Quotation Marks
When parsing JSON data, a key or a string value is always wrapped between double quotation marks. This is our cue to focus on them.
The Parsing Technique
We use slice(1, -1)
to get the content between the quotation marks, and we check if the first character is a quotation mark ("
) to know when to do this.
JAVASCRIPT
1if (input[0] === '"') {
2 return input.slice(1, -1);
