I'm using an API to parse stuff using json, it works fine but I'm stuck on interpreting the "#" symbol in json, it looks like:

"pic": [
          {
            "#text": "<someurl>",
            "size": "sm"
          },
          ..

when I do data.pic.#text it throws an error, it can't read #

Use array notation. `data.pic['#text']` There should be a duplicate question for this already. – Taplar Feb 21 '19 at 18:56
what if i want the first #text at the top? there a few, now I was trying pic[0], would it become pic[0]['#text'] ? – Nathan Bernard Feb 21 '19 at 19:00
That is correct. – Taplar Feb 21 '19 at 19:00
Alright thanks, sorry for duplicate, I didn't find related to json and I didn't know was a broader issue – Nathan Bernard Feb 21 '19 at 19:02
It's all good. If you knew already this question would not exist, :) – Taplar Feb 21 '19 at 19:04
