JSON.stringify set root element

Question

I want to convert my object into a JSON String where the root element should be the name of my object.

var data = {
  name: 'qwertz',
  age: 23,
  skills: [
    'html', 'css'            
  ]
}

var json = JSON.stringify(data);

The output is:

{"name":"qwertz","age":23,"skills":["html","css"]} 

But I want this:

{"data":{"name":"qwertz","age":23,"skills":["html","css"]}} 

Can someone give me a hint how to reach this? Thanks you :)

As simple as that:

var json = JSON.stringify({ data: data });

Answer 2

JSON.stringify({'data':data})
