Python Language Tuple

Overview

A tuple is a immutable sequence type that contains zero or more elements and whose elements can be of different types. Once a tuple is defined, you can't add, delete or change items. A tuple is similar to a constant list, and could be used instead of a list, if we can afford the "list" to be immutable. Naturally, the list's mutating functions append(), insert() do not exist on tuples.

Exchanging Variable Values

Tuples can be used to exchange to variable values without using a third temporary variable.
