Tuples

This document summarizes key information about tuples in Python. Tuples are immutable sequences that are defined using parentheses. They can contain different data types and are indexed starting from 0. Tuples use less memory than lists since they are immutable. Elements in a tuple can be accessed using indexes or sliced. Tuples support operations like concatenation but not modification of elements since they are immutable.

Tuple

Tuple – A tuple contains a group of elements which can be same or different types.
Tuples are immutable.
It is similar to List but Tuples are read-only which means we can not modify it’s
element.
Tuples are used to store data which should not be modified.
It occupies less memory compare to list.
Tuples are represented using parentheses ( ).
Ex:- a = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘Geekyshows’)
Creating Empty Tuple
Syntax:- tuple_name = ( )
Ex:- a = ( )
Creating Tuple
We can create tuple by writing elements separated by commas inside parentheses.

With one Element


b = (10) It will become integer
c = (10, )

With Multiple Elements


d = (10, 20, 30, 40)
e = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘GeekyShows’)
f = 10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘GeekyShows’ It will become a tuple
Index
An index represents the position number of an tuple’s element. The index start from 0
on wards and written inside square braces.
Ex:- a = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘Geekyshows’)

[0] 10 [-5] 10
[1] 20 [-4] 20
a [2] -50 a [-3] -50
[3] 21.3 [-2] 21.3
[4] Geekyshows [-1] Geekyshows
Accessing Tuple’s Element
a = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘Geekyshows’)

print(a[0])
print(a[1]) 10 20 -50 21.3 Geekyshows
a[0] a[1] a[2] a[3] a[4]
print(a[2])

print(a[3])
print(a[4])
Accessing using for loop
a = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘Geekyshows’)

Without index
for element in a:
print(element)

With index
n = len(a)
for i in range(n):
print(a[i])
Accessing using while loop
a = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘Geekyshows’)

n = len(a)
i=0
while i < n :
print(a[i])
i+=1
Slicing on Tuple
Slicing on tuple can be used to retrieve a piece of the tuple that contains a
group of elements. Slicing is useful to retrieve a range of elements.
Syntax:-
new_tuple_name = tuple_name[start:stop:stepsize]
Tuple Concatenation
+ operator is used to do concatenation the tuple.
Ex:-
a = (10, 20, 30)
b = (1, 2, 3)
result = a + b
print(result)
Modifying Element
Tuples are immutable so it is not possible to modify, update or delete it’s
element.
a = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘Geekyshows’)
10 20 -50 21.3 Geekyshows
a[1] = 40
a[0] a[1] a[2] a[3] a[4]
b = (101, 102, 103)

t=a+b 10 20 -50 21.3 GeekyShows 101 102 103


t[0] t[1] t[2] t[3] t[4] t[5] t[6] t[7]
Deleting Tuple
You can delete entire tuple but not an element of tuple.
a = (10, 20, -50, 21.3, ‘Geekyshows’)
del a
10 20 -50 21.3 Geekyshows
a[0] a[1] a[2] a[3] a[4]
Repetition of Tuple
* Operator is used to repeat the elements of tuple.
Ex:-
b = (1, 2, 3)
result = b * 3
print(result)
Aliasing Tuple
Aliasing means giving another name to the existing object. It doesn’t mean
copying.
a
a = (10, 20, 30, 40, 50)
b=a
10 20 30 40 50
[0] [1] [2] [3] [4]

10 20 30 40 50
Copying Tuple
We can copy elements of tuple into another tuple using slice.
a = (10, 20, 30, 40, 50)
a
b=a
b = a[0:5]
10 20 30 40 50
b = a[1:4]
[0] [1] [2] [3] [4]
