Challenge 21 - JSON and Stock Dividends
👋 Welcome Gophers! In this Go challenge, you are going to be working with JSON data and implementing a function that takes in a JSON string full of stock quotes and returns the one with the highest dividend return.
You will need to implement the HighestDividend function so that it takes in a JSON string. You will then need to somehow convert this JSON string into something you can traverse in Go using the encoding/json package.
Finally, you will need to return the string ticker for the stock that has the highest dividend.
[
{"ticker": "APPL", "dividend": 0.5},
{"ticker": "MSFT", "dividend": 0.2}
]
## HighestDividend returns "APPL"
