[Python] Tuples?
Tuples are used to store multiple items in a single variable. Tuple is one of 4 built-in data types in Python used to store collections of data, the other 3 are List, Set, and Dictionary, all with different qualities and usage. A tuple is a collection which is ordered and unchangeable.
whenever create tuples, we're using open and close parenthesis()
coordinates = (2, 5)
print(coordinates[1])
You're going to get "5"
What's the difference between List and Tuple ?

Python Collections (Arrays)
There are four collection data types in the Python programming language:
- List is a collection which is ordered and changeable. Allows duplicate members.
- Tuple is a collection which is ordered and unchangeable. Allows duplicate members.
- Set is a collection which is unordered, unchangeable*, and unindexed. No duplicate members.
- Dictionary is a collection which is ordered** and changeable. No duplicate members.
you can also combine Tuple and List
coordinates = [(2, 5), (7,8), (3,4)]
print(coordinates[1])
you're getting;
(7, 8)
