Python Tuple

Tuples are immutable data type. They are ordered and indexed like list and allow duplicate values.

Create a Tuple

a = ('Red', 'Green', 'Blue')

print(a)

Run the Code

Tuple can contain duplicate values.

a = ('Red', 'Green', 'Blue', 'Red', 'Yellow')

print(a)

Run the Code

Tuple are ordered and can be access using the index number.

a = ('Red', 'Green', 'Blue', 'Red', 'Yellow')

print(a[1])

Run the Code

Change Tuple Elements

As tuples are immutable, we cannot change them but what we can do is, we can cast the tuple first to list then change the list as per our requirement then cast it back to tuple.

Change green to black.

a = ('Red', 'Green', 'Blue')

a = list(a)

a[1] = 'black'

a = tuple(a)

print(a)

Run the Code

Add Tuple Elements

As tuples are immutable, we cannot add element in tuple but what we can do is, we can cast the tuple first to list then add element in the list then cast it back to tuple.

Add black at the end.

a = ('Red', 'Green', 'Blue')

a = list(a)

a.append('Black')

a = tuple(a)

print(a)

Run the Code

Delete Tuple Elements

As tuples are immutable, we cannot delete element in tuple but what we can do is, we can cast the tuple first to list then delete element in the list then cast it back to tuple.
