解析python中的json数据列表

Question

I'm a beginner coding a home project. I've used json to store some information and now I've opened it from another python function to use, here is what is returned:

{'_id': {'$oid': '5eab443d1eae7f1c689ab614'}, 'a': 'James', 'answer1': 'c', 'answer2': 'a', 'answer3': 'b', 'answer4': 'c', 'answer5': 'b', 'b': 'John', 'c': 'Jake', 'd': 'a house', 'e': 'a caravan', 'f': 'a hotel', 'g': 'red', 'h': 'orange', 'i': 'yellow', 'j': 'hat', 'k': 'scarf', 'l': "gloves", 'm': 'happy', 'n': 'sad', 'o': 'upset', 'q1': '1', 'q2': '2', 'q3': '3', 'q4': '4', 'q5': '5', 'question1': 'The boy's name was:', 'question2': 'The boy lived in:', 'question3': 'The boy's jumper was:', 'question4': 'The boy lost his:', 'question5': 'The boy was:', 'quiz_id': '1a', 'quiz_title': 'The New Boy', 'url': '/images/comp_cards/card1a.png'}

Now, I am trying to pull information from this list but all the info is stored at the 0 index so when I do this:

with open('quiz.json', 'r') as read_file: 
    quiz_data = json.load(read_file) 

    print(quiz_data[0])

the whole lot is returned, if I change the index value to above 0 then nothing is returned. What do I need to do to retrieve only data from the list that I need, so say I need the fields name 'answer1', 'answer2' and 'answer3'? thanks

Answer 1

since output is a dictionary,you can access to key and get the value.For example if you need value of answer1 you can try

quiz_data[0].get("answer1")

or

quiz_data[0]["answer1"]
