Tuples in Python

An immutable data value that contains related elements.
Tuples are used to group together related data,
such as a person’s name, their age, and their gender.

A tuple is also immutable (cant be changed) unlike a list.

tup1 = ('physics', 'chemistry', 1997, 2000);

#A tuple is essentailly a list with limited uses. They are popular when making variables 
#or containers that you don't want changed, or when making temporary variables.
#A tuple is defined with parentheses.
