Best way to encode tuples with json

Question

In python I have a dictionary that maps tuples to a list of tuples. e.g.

{(1,2): [(2,3),(1,7)]}

I want to be able to encode this data use it with j

Answer 1

My recommendation would be:

{ "1": [
        { "2": [[2,3],[1,7]] }
       ]
}

It's still parsing, but depending on how you use it, it may be easier in this form.
