• To ensure compatibility with all programming languages

• To reduce the file size

• To increase the processing speed

How does JSON data appear when compared to Python dictionaries?

• It is identical in structure and function

• It is a list of Python dictionaries

• It looks similar but is just text characters

• It is a binary format

What is the main purpose of writing a script to read JSON data?

• To encrypt the JSON data

• To modify the JSON file

• To extract and print specific information

• To convert JSON to XML

In the example script, what is calculated from the JSON file?

• The medal count for 2012

• The average score of participants

• The number of participating countries

• The total number of events

What coding practice is highlighted in the summary of the tutorial?

• Avoiding comments in code

• Using global variables

• Structuring code with functions

• Writing code in a single line
