python how to use tuples code example

Example 1: 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

Example 2: what are tuples in python

#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.

Example 3: tuple() python

example = [1, 2, 3, 4]
# Here is a list above! As we both know, lists can change in value
# unlike toples, which are not using [] but () instead and cannot
# change in value, because their values are static.

# list() converts your tuple into a list.
tupleexample = ('a', 'b', 'c')

print(list(tupleexample))

>> ['a', 'b', 'c']

# tuple() does the same thing, but converts your list into a tuple instead.

print(example)

>> [1, 2, 3, 4]

print(tuple(example))

>> (1, 2, 3, 4)
