(C) Create more Complex JSON Document

Sample code to create the following JSON document:

    {  
        "Title": "The Cuckoo's Calling",  
        "Author": "Robert Galbraith",  
        "Genre": "classic crime novel",  
        "Detail": {  
            "Publisher": "Little Brown",  
            "Publication_Year": 2013,  
            "ISBN-13": 9781408704004,  
            "Language": "English",  
            "Pages": 494  
        },  
        "Price": [  
            {  
                "type": "Hardcover",  
                "price": 16.65  
            },  
            {  
                "type": "Kindle Edition",  
                "price": 7.00  
            }  
        ]  
    }  

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.1.0 or greater.
