[New-bugs-announce] [issue26623] JSON encode: more informative error

[Mahmoud Lababidi]

New submission from Mahmoud Lababidi:

The json.dumps()/encode functionality will raise an Error when an object that cannot be json-encoded is encountered. The current Error message only shows the Object itself. I would like to enhance the error message by also providing the Type. This is useful when numpy.int objects are passed in, but not clear that they are numpy objects.
