How to create a tuple in Python | Basics

To create a tuple use parenthesis ( ) in Python. To assign value place all the elements in a () parenthesis, separated by commas.

my_tuple = ()

Tuple elements are ordered, unchangeable, and allow duplicate values. A tuple can have any number of elements and may be of different types (Number, float, list, string, etc.).

Simple example code of Different types of tuples

# Empty tuple
my_tuple = ()
print(my_tuple)

# Tuple having integers
my_tuple = (1, 2, 3)
print(my_tuple)
