JSON::Syck - JSON is YAML (but consider using JSON::XS instead!) JSON::Syck is a syck implementation of JSON parsing and generation. Because JSON is YAML (http://redhanded.hobix.com/inspect/yamlIsJson.html), using syck gives you a fast and memory-efficient parser and dumper for JSON data representation. However, a newer module JSON::XS, has since emerged. It is more flexible, efficient and robust, so please consider using it instead of this module.
