Hey everyone!
Wanted to get some clarification on the send method for the response object. Andrew mentions it in this video and it is part of a coding challenge coming up.
Even though I passed the coding challenge, I'm still unsure about what the method actually does. I've read the express docs and still feel confused.
I think it's something to do with the parsing of incoming data to certain data types? i.e JSON?
Some further explanation would be great!
Thanks, Jiten.
