toJSON()

Apart from converting JSON to R with fromJSON(), you can also use toJSON() to convert R data to a JSON format. In its most basic use, you simply pass this function an R object to convert to a JSON. The result is an R object of the class json, which is basically a character string representing that JSON.

For this exercise, you will be working with a .csv file containing information on the amount of desalinated water that is produced around the world. As you'll see, it contains a lot of missing values. This data can be found on the URL that is specified in the sample code.
