An Alternative Way to Create a Tuple in Python

An alternative way to create a tuple is to use the tuple function. The required elements or objects are passed to its parameter.

Let's make a tuple by passing a string to the function parameter:

tpl = tuple('abcde')
print(tpl) # ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e')

However, numbers cannot be passed to the tuple function:

tpl = tuple(1234)
print(tpl) # will display an error

Given a variable:

tst = '12345'

Create a tuple from it.

Given a string:

txt = '12345'

Split this string into the following tuple:

tpl = ('1', '2', '3', '4', '5')

Given a variable:

tst = 98765

Create a tuple from it:

tpl = ('9', '8', '7', '6', '5')
