Python non iterable data
I have a data of this format which I am trying to parse in my python script:
Code:
{
    "mydict": [
        {
            "DATA1": "USA",
            "DATA2": true,
            "DATA3": "878473e923jsjdhsjdfh38980",
          },
        {
            "DATA1": "UK",
            "DATA2": false,
            "DATA3": "zscj27r87878r7jhdkjasdjksa",
        }
    ]
}

Is there a way to get corresponding value of DATA3 of the set containing DATA1 as "UK" using python? I tried dictionary iteration but its failing.

Code:
>>> a_dict['mydict'][1]['DATA1']
'UK'
>>> a_dict['mydict'][1]['DATA3']
'zscj27r87878r7jhdkjasdjksa'
>>>

Actually my data had no quotes on the second item where true and false values where appearing. That's why my dictionary call was not working. I am now trying to figure how to replace this sting to convert it to a dictionary.
