python list of tuples to javascript array of arrays

Question

I have a list of tuples in python

[('abc','state','fsf',val), ('pqr','state','efg',val2)]

I want to convert them into javascript array of arrays.

I tried this

jdump = json.dumps(lis_of_tup) #in python 
and tried 
JSON.stringify(name)
alert(name + ' ' + typeof(name)) // this is returning a string 

When I called split on name and caled item[0] its giving me 'abc' instead of ('abc','state','fsf',val)

Answer 1

In python, I do

data = [('abc','state','fsf', "val"), ('pqr','state','efg', "val2")]
import json
print json.dumps(data)

Output

[["abc", "state", "fsf", "val"], ["pqr", "state", "efg", "val2"]]

And then I do this in javascript

data ='[["abc", "state", "fsf", "val"], ["pqr", "state", "efg", "val2"]]'
arrayOfArrays = JSON.parse(data);
console.log(arrayOfArrays);

and this gives

[ [ 'abc', 'state', 'fsf', 'val' ],
  [ 'pqr', 'state', 'efg', 'val2' ] ]

which is an array of arrays and when I do

console.log(arrayOfArrays[0]);

it gives

[ 'abc', 'state', 'fsf', 'val' ]
