There are two main styles of programming. Imperative Programming and Declarative Programming. Programs written in the imperative style describe the exact steps the computer should take i.e the “how” while programs written in the declarative style describe the desired result we want i.e the “what”.

So what were the main lessons I learned from this?

In the last post, I talked about how I implemented all the features in the JSON specification. That’s nice but I was curious to see how my implementation compared performance wise with the existing standard library implementation.

In the previous post, I wrote about how I added the iterator abstraction. In this one, I will be discussing how I added new features.
