Tuples in Python
A tuple is a sequence of immutable Python objects.
tup1 = (‘physics’, ‘chemistry’, 1997, 2000);
tup2 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 );
tup3 = “a”, “b”, “c”, “d”;
an empty tuple
t = ()
To write a tuple containing a single value you have to include a comma, even though there is only one value −
tup1 = (50,);
accesing the value in tuple tup[index]
we cant update tuples as they are immutable.
deleting the tuple
del tup
we cant delete an element from tuple as they are immutable.
Built-in Tuple Functions
Python includes the following tuple functions −
Sr.No. Function with Description
1 cmp(tuple1, tuple2)
Compares elements of both tuples.
2 len(tuple)
Gives the total length of the tuple.
3 max(tuple)
Returns item from the tuple with max value.
4 min(tuple)
Returns item from the tuple with min value.
5 tuple(seq)
