TUPLE IN PYTHON

Dr. Smita R. Chavan


Dr. Smita R. Chavan 2

Topics :
• Creating Tuple

• Accessing Elements in a Tuple

• Loop Through a Tuple

• Built-in functions used with Tuple

• Built-in Tuple Methods

• Deleting Tuples
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 3

Tuple in Python
• Tuple is a collection which is ordered and unchangeable.
Allows duplicate members.

• A tuple is just like a list of a sequence of immutable


python objects.

• A tuple is declared in parentheses and cannot be


changed. However, you can take portions of existing
tuples to make new tuples.
•
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 4

Creating Tuple :
• # empty tuple
• tup1 = ()
• print(tup1)

• month = ('Jan',‘Feb',‘March')
• print(month) Accept a number and create a tuple.

• For writing tuple for a single value,


• tup2 = (‘hi’,)

You need to include a comma, even though there is a single value.


Dr. Smita R. Chavan 5

Tuple can have any number of items and they may be of


different types (integer, float, string,list etc.).

• emp_tuple = (1, “Amit", 40000.00)


• print(emp_tuple)

• Define product tuple consists of product number,name


and quantity.
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 6

The tuple() Constructor


• It is also possible to use the tuple() constructor to make a
tuple.
• # empty tuple
• t1 =tuple ()
• print(t1)

• day =tuple( (‘Mon',‘Tue',‘Wed'))


• print(day)

• Accept a string and create a tuple,using constructor.


Dr. Smita R. Chavan 7

Exercise 1:
• Write a python program which will define tuple of month in
words & accept number from user and print month in
words.

• Write a python program which will define tuple of one digit


number in words & accept number from user and print it in
words using function.
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 8

Accessing Elements in a Tuple

We can use the index operator [] to access an item in a


tuple where the index starts from 0.

• my_tuple = ('p',‘y',‘t',‘h',‘o',‘n')
• print(my_tuple[0])
• # Output: 'p‘

• print(my_tuple[5])
• # Output: ‘n‘
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 9

Accessing Elements in a Tuple:


We can access a range of items in a tuple by using
the slicing operator (colon).

• my_tuple = ('p',‘y',‘t',‘h',‘o',‘n')

• print(my_tuple[3:6])
• o/p : (‘h',‘o',‘n')

• print(my_tuple[:3])
• o/p :('p',‘y',‘t')

• print(my_tuple[3:])
• o/p : (‘h',‘o',‘n')
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 10

• print(my_tuple [:])
o/p :('p',‘y',‘t',‘h',‘o',‘n')

• print(my_tuple[-2:])
• o/p :(‘o',‘n')

• print(my_tuple[:-2])
• o/p :('p',‘y',‘t',‘h')

• print(my_tuple[::2])
• o/p :('p',‘t',‘o')

• print(my_tuple[::-1]) # reverse the tuple


Dr. Smita R. Chavan 11

Loop Through a Tuple

• You can loop through the tuple items by using a for loop:
fruit_tuple = ("apple", "banana", "cherry")

for fruit in fruit_tuple:


print(fruit)
• o/p:
• apple
• banana
• cherry
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 12

Check if Item Exists

if “cherry" in my_tuple:


print("Yes, ‘cherry' is in the fruits tuple")

• Create a tuple of Mobile_brands. Accept a name of mobile


and check whether it is present in tuple or not.
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 13

Built-in functions
T = (25,90,45,12,5)

Method Syntax Description Example


len() len(obj) Returns length of obj. len(T)
o/p : 5
sum() sum(obj) Returns the sum of all sum(T)
values from tuple obj . o/p:177
max() max(obj) Returns the max value from max(T)
tuple obj . o/p:90
min() min(obj) Returns the max value from min(T)
tuple obj . o/p:5

sorted() sorted(obj) Sorts objects of tuple. sorted(T)


o/p: [5, 12, 25, 45, 90]
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 14

Built-in Tuple Methods


Python has two built-in methods that you can use on tuples.

num =(34,67,23,34,89)

Method Syntax Description Example


count() tuple.count(obj) Returns count of how num.count(34)
many times obj occurs in o/p : 2
tuple.
index() tuple.index(obj) Returns the lowest index num.index(89)
in tuple that obj appears. o/p:4
Dr. Smita R. Chavan 15

Deleting Tuples

• Tuples are immutable and cannot be deleted, but deleting

tuple entirely is possible by using the keyword "del."

• fruit = ("apple", "banana", "cherry")

del fruit
print(fruit)

• #this will raise an error because the tuple no longer exists
