+# 100 Days of Code
+
+### Day 11:
+Took a break on the weekend, but I am back at it. Today, I made a class for
+decoding json data. Here is the code. I can use this with my xonsh shell now so
+its proving to be useful.
+
+```python 
+
+import os
+import json
+from pprint import pprint
+
+class JsonUtils(object):
+    """ Json utility library """
+
+
+    def decode(self, json_file):
+        """ Decode a json string or file that contains json """
+        if os.path.isfile(json_file):
+            with open(json_file, 'r'):
+                data = json.load(json_file)
+                return pprint(data)
+        else:
+            data = json.loads(json_file)
+            return pprint(data)
+```
