Convert string to javascript array in MVC

Question

I have ViewBag.Result with string value "[['Garreth','VP'],['Johan','IT'],['Test','QA']]"

I want to convert it as javascript array

var dataset =
[
    ['Garreth','VP'],
    ['Johan','IT'],
    ['Test','QA']
]

Obviously var dataset = '@ViewBag.Result' doesn't work because javascript treat is as string but not array. Any idea how to do this?

Thanks

Just remove the single quotes:

var dataset = @ViewBag.Result
