Store multiple values in single key in json

Question

I need to store many values in single key of json. e.g.

{
  "number" : "1","2","3",
  "alphabet" : "a", "b", "c"
}

Something like this. Any pointers?

Use arrays:

{
    "number": ["1", "2", "3"],
    "alphabet": ["a", "b", "c"]
}

You can the access the different values from their position in the array. Counting starts at left of array at 0. myJsonObject["number"][0] == 1 or myJsonObject["alphabet"][2] == 'c'

how to access in json parsing can you describe? – Dec 11 '14 at 13:48
@Johnson `var jsObject = JSON.parse(jsonData);` At this point, the variable `jsObject` can be accessed normally. – Elliot Bonneville Dec 11 '14 at 14:20

@Johnson Sorry mate, but it doesn't look like your problem is JavaScript specific, so I can't help you. – Elliot Bonneville Dec 12 '14 at 04:19
