# Tuple

1. A Tuple is a collection of Python objects separated by commas.
2. In someways a tuple is similar to a list in terms of indexing, nested objects and repetition but a tuple is immutable unlike lists which are mutable.

Example - 1:

```python
# Creating non-empty tuples 
  
# One way of creation 
tup = 'python', 'gyansetu'
print(tup) 
  
# Another for doing the same 
tup = ('python', 'gyansetu') 
print(tup) 
```

('python', 'gyansetu')

('python', 'gyansetu')

Example - 2:

```python
t = ( 5,6,7)
print(t)
print(type(t))
```

(5, 6, 7)

\<class 'tuple'>

Example - 3:

```python
#code to test that tuples are immutable 
  
tuple1 = (0, 1, 2, 3) 
tuple1[0] = 4
print(tuple1) 
```

TypeError Traceback (most recent call last)

&#x20;in () 2 3 tuple1 = (0, 1, 2, 3) ----> 4 tuple1\[0] = 4 5 print(tuple1)

TypeError: 'tuple' object does not support item assignment

Example - 4:

```python
l1 = [ 1,2,3]
l2 = [4,5,6]
t1 = ('hi','hello')
t2 = ('bye',1,2,3)
t3 = t1 + t2 #add both the tuples
print(t1)
print(t2)
print(t3)
l3 = l1+l2
print(l1)
print(l2)
print(l3)
```

('hi', 'hello')

('bye', 1, 2, 3)

('hi', 'hello', 'bye', 1, 2, 3)

\[1, 2, 3]

\[4, 5, 6]

\[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

Example - 5:

```python
# code to test slicing 
  
tuple1 = (0 ,1, 2, 3) 
print(tuple1[1:]) 
print(tuple1[::-1]) 
print(tuple1[2:4])
```

(1, 2, 3)

(3, 2, 1, 0)

(2, 3)

Example - 6:

```python
# Code for printing the length of a tuple 
  
tuple2 = ('python', 'awesome') 
print(len(tuple2)) 
```

Example - 7:

```python
# Code for converting a list and a string into a tuple 
  
list1 = [0, 1, 2] 
print(tuple(list1)) 
print(tuple(('python'))) # string 'python' 
```

(0, 1, 2)

('p', 'y', 't', 'h', 'o', 'n')

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://gyansetu-python.gitbook.io/python-programming/python-data-types/tuple.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
