This function parses JSON strings. It converts JSON arrays into cell arrays and JSON objects into structures.
This can be used with webervices that return JSON data such as the API provided by Google®.
An example of use is:
google_search = 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&q=matlab';
matlab_results = parse_json(urlread(google_search));
disp(matlab_results{1}.responseData.results{1}.titleNoFormatting)
disp(matlab_results{1}.responseData.results{1}.visibleUrl)
