Tuple is defined as an ordered collection of any Python objects enclosed in parentheses. Hence, a tuple can very well be one of the items in the collection.
>>> t1=(1,(4, 5, 6),2,3) >>> t1 (1, (4, 5, 6), 2, 3)
In this example, item at index number 1 in t1 is a tuple itself. Hence it can be retrieved using the index as −
>>> t1[1] (4, 5, 6)
Further items of enclosed tuples can also be retrieved using their internal index
>>> t1[1][1] 5
