tuple - tuple python code example

Example 1: what is a tuple in python

# A tuple is a sequence of immutable Python objects. Tuples are
# sequences, just like lists. The differences between tuples
# and lists are, the tuples cannot be changed unlike lists and
# tuples use parentheses, whereas lists use square brackets.
tup1 = ('physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000);
tup2 = "a", "b", "c", "d";

# To access values in tuple, use the square brackets for
# slicing along with the index or indices to obtain value
# available at that index.
tup1[0] # Output: 'physics'

Example 2: tuples in python

my_tuple = 3, 4.6, "dog"
print(my_tuple)

# tuple unpacking is also possible
a, b, c = my_tuple

print(a)      # 3
print(b)      # 4.6
print(c)      # dog
