Hi,
I was wondering about the type information in the written json file. See
the attached example. For the strings array "SS" and the nested bundle
"bsub" as well as the matrices array "MM" this info is not
explicitly
given it seems. Is this intended?
In a word, yes. Native JSON types don't have to be flagged as such.
We only have to flag "complex" gretl types that are made up of
ordinary JSON objects, arrays, or values arranged in a particular
way.
