    // Imagine we have the following JSON:

    // 	{ 
    // 	  "Meta Data": { 
    // 	    "1: Symbol": "MSFT",
    // 	    "2: Indicator": "Relative Strength Index (RSI)",
    // 	    "3: Last Refreshed": "2017-07-28 09:30:00",
    // 	    "4: Interval": "15min",
    // 	    "5: Time Period": 10,
    // 	    "6: Series Type": "close",
    // 	    "7: Time Zone": "US/Eastern Time"
    // 	  },
    // 	  "Technical Analysis: RSI": { 
    // 	    "2017-07-28 09:30": { 
    // 	      "RSI": "38.6964"
    // 	    },
    // 	    "2017-07-27 16:00": { 
    // 	      "RSI": "50.0088"
    // 	    } 
    // 	} 

    // The path to the RSI valud 38.6964 is Technical Analysis: RSI.2017-07-28 09:30.RSI

    // Whenever a path part contains a SPACE or "." char, that part must be enclosed
    // in double quotes.  For example:

    json = CkJsonObjectW_Create();
    CkJsonObjectW_LoadFile(json,L"qa_data/json/rsi.json");

    wprintf(L"RSI: %s\n",CkJsonObjectW_stringOf(json,L"\"Technical Analysis: RSI\".\"2017-07-28 09:30\".RSI"));

    // output is 38.6964


    CkJsonObjectW_Dispose(json);

    }
