How does YAML differ from JSON in data interchange formats?

Answer options

• A. YAML supports comments
• B. JSON is language specific
• C. JSON is a superset of YAML
• D. YAML is not indentation aware

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because YAML allows comments, which JSON does not support. Option B is incorrect as JSON is not language specific, it is widely used across various programming languages. Option C is misleading since JSON is not a superset of YAML, but rather a distinct format. Option D is false as YAML is indeed indentation aware and uses indentation to denote structure.
