Example 1: what are tuples used for

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 the same as a list except uses parenthisies instead of square brackets.
A tuple is also immutable (cant be changed) unlike a list.

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

Example 2: 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 3: changing tuple values

x = ("apple", "banana", "cherry")
y = list(x)
y[1] = "kiwi"
x = tuple(y)

print(x)

Example 4: how to use tupels python

tupel = ('banana',10,True)
print(tupel[2])

Example 5: tuples

#!/usr/bin/python

tup1 = (12, 34.56);
tup2 = ('abc', 'xyz');

# Following action is not valid for tuples
# tup1[0] = 100;

# So let's create a new tuple as follows
tup3 = tup1 + tup2;
print tup3;

Example 6: tuple in python

#a tuple is basically the same thing as a
#list, except that it can not be modified.
tup = ('a','b','c')
