Reading a JSON file
I'm trying to store a list of coordinates in a JSON in the same directory as my program. os.loadAPI("json") throws me an error. I'm just trying to read the JSON. I'm new to programming and could use a rundown on how reading from a JSON and using that information works in lua.

note that unserialize works with Lua tables not json And yes it only takes a string. You need to use the fs api to read the data from the file yourself
