Deserialize JSON with C#

Question

I\'m trying to deserialize a Facebook friend\'s Graph API call into a list of objects. The JSON object looks like:

{\"data\":[{\"id\":\"518523721\",\"name\"

Newtonsoft.JSON is a good solution for these kind of situations. Also Newtonsof.JSON is faster than others, such as JavaScriptSerializer, DataContractJsonSerializer.

In this sample, you can the following:

var jsonData = JObject.Parse("your JSON data here");

Then you can cast jsonData to JArray, and you can use a for loop to get data at each iteration.

Also, I want to add something:

for (int i = 0; (JArray)jsonData["data"].Count; i++)
{
    var data = jsonData[i - 1];
}

Working with dynamic object and using Newtonsoft serialize is a good choice.
