+<p>JSON is specified in <span class="target" id="index-0"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4627.html"><strong>RFC 4627</strong></a>, <em>&#8220;The application/json Media Type

+<div class="section" id="character-encoding">
+<h2>Character Encoding<a class="headerlink" href="#character-encoding" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
+<p>Jansson only supports UTF-8 encoded JSON texts. It does not support or
+auto-detect any of the other encodings mentioned in the RFC, namely
+UTF-16LE, UTF-16BE, UTF-32LE or UTF-32BE. Pure ASCII is supported, as
+it&#8217;s a subset of UTF-8.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section" id="strings">
+<h2>Strings<a class="headerlink" href="#strings" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
+<p>JSON strings are mapped to C-style null-terminated character arrays,
+and UTF-8 encoding is used internally.</p>
+<p>All Unicode codepoints U+0000 through U+10FFFF are allowed in string
+values. However, U+0000 is not allowed in object keys because of API
+restrictions.</p>
+<p>Unicode normalization or any other transformation is never performed
+on any strings (string values or object keys). When checking for
+equivalence of strings or object keys, the comparison is performed
+byte by byte between the original UTF-8 representations of the
+strings.</p>

+<span id="id2"></span><h3>Real vs. Integer<a class="headerlink" href="#real-vs-integer" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
+<p>JSON makes no distinction between real and integer numbers; Jansson
+does. Real numbers are mapped to the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">double</span></tt> type and integers to
+the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">json_int_t</span></tt> type, which is a typedef of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">long</span> <span class="pre">long</span></tt> or
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">long</span></tt>, depending on whether <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">long</span> <span class="pre">long</span></tt> is supported by your
+compiler or not.</p>
+<p>A JSON number is considered to be a real number if its lexical
+representation includes one of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">e</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">E</span></tt>, or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.</span></tt>; regardless if
+its actual numeric value is a true integer (e.g., all of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">1E6</span></tt>,
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">3.0</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">400E-2</span></tt>, and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">3.14E3</span></tt> are mathematical integers, but
+will be treated as real values). With the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">JSON_DECODE_INT_AS_REAL</span></tt>
+decoder flag set all numbers are interpreted as real.</p>
+<p>All other JSON numbers are considered integers.</p>
+<p>When encoding to JSON, real values are always represented
+with a fractional part; e.g., the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">double</span></tt> value 3.0 will be
+represented in JSON as <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">3.0</span></tt>, not <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">3</span></tt>.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section" id="overflow-underflow-precision">
+<h3>Overflow, Underflow &amp; Precision<a class="headerlink" href="#overflow-underflow-precision" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
+<p>Real numbers whose absolute values are too small to be represented in
+a C <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">double</span></tt> will be silently estimated with 0.0. Thus, depending on
+platform, JSON numbers very close to zero such as 1E-999 may result in
+0.0.</p>
+<p>Real numbers whose absolute values are too large to be represented in
+a C <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">double</span></tt> will result in an overflow error (a JSON decoding
+error). Thus, depending on platform, JSON numbers like 1E+999 or
+-1E+999 may result in a parsing error.</p>
+<p>Likewise, integer numbers whose absolute values are too large to be
+represented in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">json_int_t</span></tt> type (see above) will result in an
+overflow error (a JSON decoding error). Thus, depending on platform,
+JSON numbers like 1000000000000000 may result in parsing error.</p>
+<p>Parsing JSON real numbers may result in a loss of precision. As long
+as overflow does not occur (i.e. a total loss of precision), the
+rounded approximate value is silently used. Thus the JSON number
+1.000000000000000005 may, depending on platform, result in the
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">double</span></tt> value 1.0.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section" id="signed-zeros">
+<h3>Signed zeros<a class="headerlink" href="#signed-zeros" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
+<p>JSON makes no statement about what a number means; however Javascript
+(ECMAscript) does state that +0.0 and -0.0 must be treated as being
+distinct values, i.e. -0.0 ≠ 0.0. Jansson relies on the
+underlying floating point library in the C environment in which it is
+compiled. Therefore it is platform-dependent whether 0.0 and -0.0 will
+be distinct values. Most platforms that use the IEEE 754
+floating-point standard will support signed zeros.</p>
+<p>Note that this only applies to floating-point; neither JSON, C, or
+IEEE support the concept of signed integer zeros.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section" id="types">
+<h3>Types<a class="headerlink" href="#types" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
+<p>No support is provided in Jansson for any C numeric types other than
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">json_int_t</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">double</span></tt>. This excludes things such as unsigned
+types, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">long</span> <span class="pre">double</span></tt>, etc. Obviously, shorter types like <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">short</span></tt>,
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">int</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">long</span></tt> (if <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">json_int_t</span></tt> is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">long</span> <span class="pre">long</span></tt>) and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">float</span></tt>
+are implicitly handled via the ordinary C type coercion rules (subject
+to overflow semantics). Also, no support or hooks are provided for any
+supplemental &#8220;bignum&#8221; type add-on packages.</p>
