json decoder JSONDecodeError Expecting value line 1 column 1 char 0

Question

I am trying to import a file which was saved using json dumps and contains tweet coordinates          type    Point         coordinates             -4 62352292           55 44787441           My code is    gt  gt  gt  import json  gt  gt  gt  data   json loads   Users JoshuaHawley clean1 txt       But each time I get the error   json decoder JSONDecodeError  Expecting value  line 1 column 1  char 0    I want to end up extracting all the coordinates and saving them separately to a different file so they can then be mapped  but this seemingly simple problem is stopping me from doing so  I have looked at answers to similar errors but don t seem to be able to apply it to this  Any help would be appreciated as I am relatively new to python

json loads   takes a JSON encoded string  not a filename  You want to use json load    no s  instead and pass in an open file object   with open   Users JoshuaHawley clean1 txt   as jsonfile      data   json load jsonfile    The open   command produces a file object that json load   can then read from  to produce the decoded Python object for you  The with statement ensures that the file is closed again when done   The alternative is to read the data yourself and then pass it into json loads
