Apologies, but HELP

just per chance, do you happen to have anaconda 3 installed?

I believe your json file is incorrectly formatted. check again in your json file with proper editor like vscode(json extension) to see where went wrong.

I do, why?

it might be trying to use python 2 instead of python 3, try
python3 encode.py WordBank.txt WordBank.npz
(note: I also have no idea what I'm doing)
