What are tuples in Python, and how do they differ from lists?

Comment

#tuple is an immutable sequence type, meaning that you cannot add, remove, or modify the items in a tuple once it is created. Tuples are similar to lists, but they are enclosed in parentheses (()) instead of square brackets ([]).

# Creating a tuple of integers
tuple1 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

# Creating a tuple of floating-point numbers
tuple2 = (1.0, 2.5, 3.14, 4.2, 5.0)

# Creating a tuple of strings
tuple3 = ('red', 'green', 'blue', 'yellow', 'orange')

# Creating a tuple of mixed data types
tuple4 = (1, 'red', 3.14, 'green', 5)

# Creating a tuple from a list
list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
tuple5 = tuple(list1)

# Creating a tuple from a string
string = 'Python is a great programming language'
tuple6 = tuple(string)

# Accessing the first item in tuple1
item = tuple1[0]

# Accessing the third item in tuple3
item = tuple3[2]

# Accessing the last item in tuple3
item = tuple3[-1]

# Accessing the first three items in tuple1
subtuple = tuple1[0:3]

# Accessing the last three items in tuple1
subtuple = tuple1[-3:]

# Accessing all items in tuple1 except the first and last
subtuple = tuple1[1:-1]

# Printing the tuples
print(tuple1)
print(tuple2)
print(tuple3)
print(tuple4)
print(tuple5)
print(tuple6)

# Printing the item and subtuple
print(item)
print(subtuple)

# Determining the data type of a tuple
print(type(tuple1))  # prints "<class 'tuple'>"

#to create a tuple you use ( ) :
myTuple = ()
#but to create a list you use [ ] :
myList = []
#tuples cannot be changed while the lists can be modified but Tuples are
#more memory efficient

python list of tuples

Comment

#List of Tuples
list_tuples =  [('Nagendra',18),('Nitesh',28),('Sathya',29)]

#To print the list of tuples using for loop you can print by unpacking them
for name,age in list_tuples:
  print(name,age)

#To print with enumerate--->enumerate is nothing but gives the index of the array.
for index,(name,age) in list_tuples:
  #print using fstring
  print(f'My name is {name} and age is {age} and index is {index}')
  #print using .format
  print('My name is {n} and age is {a} and index is {i}'.format(n=name,a=age,i=index))
