I'm having trouble finding how to convert python list of of elements like this:
[[["thisid", 24024502], ["points", [[["lat", 37.8732041], ["lon", -122.2562601]], [["lat", 37.8729153], ["lon", -122.2561566]]]], ["name", "Latimer Hall"]]
to json array of elements like that:
{"thisid":24024502, "points": [{"lat": 37.8732041, "lon": -122.2562601}, {"lat":37.8729153, "lon":-122.2561566}], "name":"Latimer Hall"}
Basically, I'm trying to convert list of lists with inner structure to a corresponding list in json.
Plain json.dumps(mylist) just returns the original list (I guess, it's bc it's a valid json object as well...)
Many thanks for any suggestions you may have!

The parens in your original code are unbalanced. If i remove one paren in the beginning:
>>> a = [["thisid", 24024502], ["points", [[["lat", 37.8732041], ["lon", -122.2562601]], [["lat", 37.8729153], ["lon", -122.2561566]]]], ["name", "Latimer Hall"]]
>>> b = dict(a)
>>> for i, l in enumerate(b['points']):
... b['points'][i] = dict(l)
...
>>> b
{'points': [{'lat': 37.8732041, 'lon': -122.2562601}, {'lat': 37.8729153, 'lon': -122.2561566}], 'thisid': 24024502, 'name': 'Latimer Hall'}
>>>
Then serialize it into json
