Python JSON: Check whether a JSON string contains complex object or not

Python JSON: Exercise-8 with Solution

Write a Python program to check whether a JSON string contains complex object or not.

Sample Solution:-

Python Code:

import json
def is_complex_num(objct):
    if '__complex__' in objct:
        return complex(objct['real'], objct['img'])
    return objct

complex_object =json.loads('{"__complex__": true, "real": 4, "img": 5}', object_hook = is_complex_num)
simple_object =json.loads('{"real": 4, "img": 3}', object_hook = is_complex_num)
print("Complex_object: ",complex_object)
print("Without complex object: ",simple_object)

Output:

Complex_object:  (4+5j)
Without complex object:  {'real': 4, 'img': 3}
