Courses Plus Student 11,182 PointsHaving trouble parsing this json
object(stdClass)#369 (2) { ["status"]=> object(stdClass)#18390 (2) { ["code"]=> int(200) ["message"]=> string(8) "Success." } ["results"]=> array(3) { [0]=> object(stdClass)#18391 (3) { ["symbol"]=> string(3) "HPQ" ["name"]=> string(23) "Hewlett-Packard Company" ["marketCap"]=> int(51734941406) } [1]=> object(stdClass)#18392 (3) { ["symbol"]=> string(5) "LNVGY" ["name"]=> string(20) "Lenovo Group Ltd ADR" ["marketCap"]=> int(10097769531) } [2]=> object(stdClass)#18393 (3) { ["symbol"]=> string(3) "DDD" ["name"]=> string(15) "3D Systems Corp" ["marketCap"]=> int(1373099976) } } }
when I try to pull individual pieces of data like so $json_competitors -> {'symbol'} I get nothing

Its much easier to see once you put the json into a code editor and format it correctly.
