Tuples in Python

In this section, you'll get to know tuples, a data type unique to Python. Tuples are similar to lists, because they also store a set of specific values. However, tuples are immutable - you can't add, change, or delete elements from the original tuple itself. All of the data in a tuple is enclosed in parentheses:

Tuples are widely used in cases where it is necessary to protect data from accidental changes. Also, tuples take up less memory than lists of the same length. Therefore, they are also used to save RAM.
