Explanation

json.loads() (load string) deserializes a JSON-formatted string into a Python object (typically a dictionary). The counterpart json.dumps() (dump string) serializes a Python object into a JSON string - the opposite direction. json.parse() and json.to_json() do not exist in Python's standard json module. Remember: loads = load from string, dumps = dump to string.
