title: How to read Python list in Javascript [in a Django template]
body: <p>I'm programming in oTree (which is a Django based environment for social experiments) and I have the following problem. I defined some lists in Python and I'd like to import them and use them in an HTML template. If I print them in HTML I manage to see them without any problem, however, once I need to use them in Javascript, the program fails to read them and the single quotes of the elements of the list are converted in <code>&amp;#39;</code>.
  The list is imported like this <code>var filtered_elements = {{ array }};</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I think the problem is exactly here, as JS cannot work with them. Do you have any suggestion on how to do that? I considered using JSON, but since I'm quite new to programming, I cannot understand if it's just a waste of time or there is a simpler way out.
  Thanks for your answers!</p>
