Common JSON Errors and How to Fix Them

JSON validator error de raha hai? Yeh 5 sabse common galtiyan hain:

1. Single quotes - JSON mein sirf double quotes valid hain.
{'name': 'value'}{"name": "value"}
2. Trailing comma - Last item ke baad comma allowed nahi.
{"a": 1, "b": 2,}{"a": 1, "b": 2}
3. Unquoted keys - Property names double quotes mein hone chahiye.
{name: "value"}{"name": "value"}
4. Comments - JSON mein comments allowed nahi hain (JavaScript objects se different).
{"a": 1 // comment}{"a": 1}
5. undefined / NaN - Yeh JSON values nahi hain; null use karo.
{"a": undefined}{"a": null}
