Function py_scanstring

simplejson/decoder.py:68–139

Scan the string s for a JSON string. End is the index of the character in s after the quote that started the JSON string. Unescapes all valid JSON string escape sequences and raises ValueError on attempt to decode an invalid string. If strict is False then literal control characters
