Deserializing JSON into a Collection of Objects Using Newtonsoft's JSON.NET

Challenge:

Convert a JSON string into a list of C# objects, utilizing Newtonsoft's JSON.NET library, while focusing only on specific properties within the target class.

Implementation:

1. Convert JSON into C# Class Structure:

• Utilize JSON converters like json2csharp.com to convert the JSON into a C# class structure.

2. Create Target Object Class:

• Define a C# class, such as MatrixModel, that resembles the expected object structure.

3. Deserializing JSON String:

• Use JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json) to deserialize the JSON string into a list of MatrixModel objects.

Example:

public class MatrixModel
{
    public string S1 { get; set; }
    public string S2 { get; set; }
    public string S3 { get; set; }
    public string S4 { get; set; }
    public string S5 { get; set; }
    public string S6 { get; set; }
    public string S7 { get; set; }
    public string S8 { get; set; }
    public string S9 { get; set; }
    public string S10 { get; set; }
    public int ScoreIfNoMatch { get; set; }
}

string json = ...; // Your JSON string
var model = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject>(json);

In your specific case:

• You can use JSON converters like json2csharp.com to generate the C# class structure for your JSON data.
• Replace the json variable with the actual JSON string you want to deserialize.
• The resulting model variable will be a list of MatrixModel objects containing only the properties specified in your class definition.
