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.

also. For example −

tu
Optionally you can put these comma-separated values between parentheses

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

D
tup2 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 );

JM
tup3 = "a", "b", "c", "d";
The empty tuple is written as two parentheses containing nothing −
tup1 = ();
To write a tuple containing a single value you have to include a comma, even
though there is only one value −
tup1 = (50,);
Like string indices, tuple indices start at 0, and they can be sliced,
concatenated, and so on.

Accessing Values in Tuples

by Training.

To access values in tuple, use the square brackets for slicing

along with the index or indices to obtain value available at that

index. For example

−

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

tup2 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 );
print ("tup1[0]: ", tup1[0])
St
D
print ("tup2[1:5]: ", tup2[1:5])

result −

tup1[0]: physics
JM
When the above code is executed, it produces the following

Tuples are immutable which means you cannot update or

change the values of tuple elements. You are able to take
+91-9928016573

portions of existing tuples to create new tuples as the

# Following action is not valid for tuples

JM
# So let's create a new tuple as follows
tup3 = tup1 + tup2;
print (tup3)
Output:
(12, 34.56, 'abc', 'xyz')

Removing individual tuple elements is not possible. There is, of
