When it is required to count the elements up to the first tuple, a simple loop, the 'isinstance' method, and the 'enumerate' method can be used.
Below is a demonstration of the same −
Example
my_tuple_1 = (7, 8, 11, 0 ,(3, 4, 3), (2, 22)) print ("The tuple is : " ) print(my_tuple_1) for count, elem in enumerate(my_tuple_1): if isinstance(elem, tuple): break print("The number of elements up to the first tuple are : ") print(count)
Output
The tuple is : (7, 8, 11, 0, (3, 4, 3), (2, 22)) The number of elements up to the first tuple are : 4
Explanation
- A nested tuple is defined and is displayed on the console.
- The tuple is enumerated, and iterated over.
- The isinstance method is used to check if the element in the tuple belongs to a certain type.
- This result is stored in a counter since 'enumerate' was used.
- It is displayed as output on the console.
