Convert dictionary object to string to output as json

Question

I am using razor in webmatrix. I have a dictionary object

var occupancyTotalDic = new Dictionary<double, int>();

Once I have filled the dictionary with data I wish to output as JSON as a response to populate a flot chart

Dictionary<String, String> input = new Dictionary<String, String>();
occupancyTotalDic = input.ToDictionary(item => item.Key, item => (String)item.Value);

Response.ContentType = "application/json";
Response.Write(Json.Encode(occupancyTotalDic));

How do I convert my dictionary to contain strings so that I can output as JSON?

You show code here. Does it work? Do you get any error messages, at compile-time or run-time? — Jonathon Reinhart, May 20 '14 at 01:24
Did you google how to use [Json.NET](http://james.newtonking.com/json)? — abatishchev, May 20 '14 at 01:27

Since Webmatrix can't compile MVC application I assume you are using ASP.NET webforms.

Tried this solution https://stackoverflow.com/a/5597628/713789

If you are using MVC then just use JsonResult test(){ return Json(myobj);}
