JSON with '-' in key reading in angular js

Question

I have this JSON

{
"data":{
  "string-x": "21",
  "string-y": "110"
}
}

the string x and y is coordinates

I just want to call the coodinates by

data.string-x and data.string-y but I got this error

ReferenceError: x is not defined

what am I missing? it seems javascript treat data.string-x like equation not regular node call.

could anyone help me.

data.string-x is treated as subtraction expression, equal to data.string - x

so change your code to data["string-x"]
