Content
The note in https://docs.python.org/2/library/json.html section "18.2. json — JSON encoder and decoder". The note says incorrectly that JSON is a subset of YAML 1.2 but if you follow the text written in YAML 1.2 specification it states that: "The primary objective of this revision is to bring YAML into compliance with JSON as an official subset." So it should be that YAML is a subset of JSON and not the other way around.
