Correction: YAML is a superset of JSON

• ben-schaaf 6y ago
  To explain the downvotes: JSON ⊆ YAML implies YAML ⊇ JSON. You're saying the equivalent of "3 > 1 is wrong: 1 < 3".

    What Drew is saying is absolutely correct though. YAML was specifically designed to be a superset of JSON. Conversely, when JSON was designed, YAML did not exist, so it only became a subset of YAML when the latter was introduced.

      The words subset and superset do not imply any temporal relationship that somebody could get wrong.
