Your donation will support me to continue to make more tutorial videos!

If you write programs in Python, more likely than not, at one point you will have to either write a dictionary to a JSON file or read a dictionary from a JSON file. Fortunately, reading and dumping JSON files are super easy in Python. In this tutorial I will show you how to write a dictionary to a JSON file and how to read a dictionary from a JSON file.

If you use "with open..." you dont have to close the file, it will close automatically at the end. Look at the documentation: -->>>>
""""It is good practice to use the "with" keyword when dealing with file objects. The advantage is that the file is properly closed after its suite finishes, even if an exception is raised at some point. Using with is also much shorter than writing equivalent try-finally blocks""""

I got the error down below when I used json.load method
"JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)"

and I got the error down below when I used json.loads method
"TypeError: the JSON object must be str, bytes or bytearray, not TextIOWrapper"

Can anybody help me ?
