Python Tuple Summary

A tuple is an ordered, immutable collection of items created using parentheses, allowing duplicates and mixed data types. Key operations include accessing elements, checking existence, and methods like count and index. Tuples are beneficial for storing unchangeable data and can be used as dictionary keys.

Python Tuple - Summary Notes

What is a Tuple?

- A tuple is a collection of ordered, immutable items.

- Tuples are created using parentheses: ()

Properties:

- Ordered: Items have a fixed position.

- Immutable: You cannot change, add, or remove items after creation.

- Allows duplicates and mixed data types.

Creating a Tuple:

my_tuple = (1, 2, 3)

mixed_tuple = (1, "apple", True)

Accessing Elements:

- tuple[0] for the first item

- tuple[-1] for the last item

Tuple with One Item:

- my_tuple = (5,) # Note the comma!

Looping Through Tuples:

for item in my_tuple:

print(item)

Check Existence:

if "apple" in my_tuple:

print("Found")

Length of Tuple:
Python List - Summary Notes

len(my_tuple)

Tuple Methods:

- tuple.count(x): Count how many times x appears

- tuple.index(x): Returns index of first occurrence

Tuple Packing & Unpacking:

- Packing: my_tuple = (1, 2, 3)

- Unpacking: a, b, c = my_tuple

Nested Tuples:

nested = ((1, 2), (3, 4))

print(nested[1][0]) # 3

Why Use Tuples?

- Safer than lists when data should not change

- Can be used as keys in dictionaries (if elements are immutable)

Tuples are useful when you want to store data that should not be modified.
