python json

Question

Python

The question is, I get json from google translate and it does not want to be parsed.
What am I doing wrong? produces the following
res = urllib2.urlopen(request).read()
data = json.loads(res)


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./translate.py", line 27, in data = json.loads(res)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/__init__.py", line 307, in loads
return _default_decoder.decode(s)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 319, in decode
obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 336, in raw_decode
obj, end = self._scanner.iterscan(s, **kw).next()
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/scanner.py", line 55, in iterscan
rval, next_pos = action(m, context)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 219, in JSONArray
raise ValueError(errmsg("Expecting object", s, end))
ValueError: Expecting object: line 1 column 158 (char 158)

если сделать print(res) то выводит:
[,,["interjection",["привет","эй","ну","салют","здор `ово"]]],"en",,,,,,,21]

Answer 1

Threw a small fix. The point is empty,,, it was

<?php
$s = '[,,["глагол",["здороваться","звать","окликать"]],["междометие",["привет","здравствуйте","алло"]]],"en",,,,,,,16]';

$s = preg_replace('`,{2,}`', ',', $s);
$s = str_replace(',]', ']', $s);

print_r(json_decode($s));

Answer 2

This is not valid JSON, but quite valid JavaScript code, Google uses just the second option, so everything works for it.

Answer 3
