209 Using the data returned
210 -----------------------
211
212 Twitter API calls return decoded JSON. This is converted into
213 a bunch of Python lists, dicts, ints, and strings. For example::
7364ea65 214
215 x = twitter.statuses.public_timeline()
216
217 # The first 'tweet' in the timeline
218 x[0]
219
220 # The screen name of the user who wrote the first 'tweet'
221 x[0]['user']['screen_name']

224 Getting raw XML data
225 --------------------
226
227 If you prefer to get your Twitter data in XML format, pass
228 format="xml" to the Twitter object when you instantiate it::
4e9d6343 229
a55e6a11 230 twitter = Twitter(format="xml")
4e9d6343 231
a55e6a11 232 The output will not be parsed in any way. It will be a raw string
233 of XML.
