title: Parsing JSON with Bash jq Issue
body: <p>Using bash JQ parser, Im trying parse the fields from a cURL <code>JSON</code> response.</p>
  
  <p>In file <code>'a.json'</code> has 4 'hash' values and <code>'b.json'</code> has 5 'hash' values. Based on the assumption that my results will be similar to <code>"a.json"</code> I wrote a parser for it.</p>
  
  <pre><code>#jq -r '.info[].hashes[0].value','.info[].hashes[1].value','.info[].hashes[2].value','.info[].hashes[3].value' a.json
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Sample JSON files</p>
  
  <pre><code>#a.json

  <p>But some times the results will be like "b.json" too and have 5 fields .  when i'm trying to parse with the JQ command that i have written , Will give me only 4 fields and missing out the last value of "E".</p>
  
  <pre><code>#jq -r '.info[].hashes[0].value','.info[].hashes[1].value','.info[].hashes[2].value','.info[].hashes[3].value' b.json
  
  Result :

  <p>Now , How can we select only the hash values from desired 'name'. </p>
  
  <p>Example : If we want to select only hash values of string 'names' B,C,E in any JSON files using JQ  ?</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions please ? </p>
