Golang - Arbitrary JSON Array Parsing and Type Switch

##Golang Type Switch - Arbitrary JSON Array Parsing I'm writing this mostly as a reference for myself. This could also be helpful to people who are new to GO.

####Note 1: Until Problem 3 we will assume we are dealing with a JSON for which we know the data types of key,value pairs. Only in Problem 3 we will look at how Type Switch is used to parse a 100% arbitary JSON

####Note 2: I know the following examples given here can be easily solved by declaring approprite structs and just decoding the PUT JSON into them, but, as im not able to come up with a better scenario, im going to stick with this to explain arbitrary JSON parsing.
