title: How to parse JSON in Swift with values as keys and dictionaries as arrays
body: <p>I tried to parse JSON data from a website api in Swift, but the api is a bit weird. What works is the following: [<a href="https://www.avanderlee.com/swift/json-parsing-decoding/][1]" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.avanderlee.com/swift/json-parsing-decoding/][1]</a></p>
  
  <p>This is a structure to parse/translate:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "Meta Data": {
      "1. Information": "some info",
      "2. Symbol": "string symbol",
      "3. Last Refreshed": "2020-03-20 16:00:00",
      "4. Interval": "5min",
      "5. Output Size": "Compact",
      "6. Time Zone": "US/Eastern"
    },
    "Time Series (5min)": {
      "2020-03-20 16:00:00": {
        "1. keyABC": "138.2700",
        "2. keyCBA": "138.4900",
        "3. keyCAB": "136.6500",
        "4. keyACB": "136.7800",
        "5. keyBAC": "3392530"
      },
      "2020-03-20 15:55:00": {
        "1. keyABC": "137.7825",
        "2. keyCBA": "139.9112",
        "3. keyCAB": "137.0365",
        "4. keyACB": "138.2925",
        "5. keyBAC": "2463243"
      },
      "2020-03-20 15:50:00": {
        "1. keyABC": "139.0000",
        "2. keyCBA": "139.0150",
        "3. keyCAB": "137.7500",
        "4. keyACB": "137.7500",
        "5. keyBAC": "1051283"
      },
      ...
    }
  }
  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Problem 1: There are random-keys as values that I need and don't know how to parse without just leaving deleting
  Problem 2: The JSON Libraries are not in an array instead in a new object. But the goal is to make a Swift array out of it</p>
  
  <p>I wonder if there is an easy way to parse something like above with JSONDecode (and if there is one, what's the best?).</p>
