Tuples in Python
Python Tuple is a collection of Python Programming objects much
like a list. The sequence of values stored in a tuple can be of any type,
and they are indexed by integers. Values of a tuple are syntactically
separated by ‘commas‘. Although it is not necessary, it is more
common to define a tuple by closing the sequence of values in
parentheses. This helps in understanding the Python tuples more
easily.
What is Immutable in Tuples?
Tuples are immutable. Some Characteristics of Tuples in Python:
• Like Lists, tuples are ordered and we can access their elements using
their index values
• We cannot update items to a tuple once it is created.
• Tuples cannot be appended or extended.
• We cannot remove items from a tuple once it is created.

Accessing Values in Python Tuples
Tuples in Python provide two ways by which we can access the
elements of a tuple.
• Python Access Tuple using a Positive Index
• Access Tuple using Negative Index
Different ways of creating Tuple
• Using round brackets
• Without Brackets
• Tuple Constructor
• Empty Tuple
• Single Element Tuple
• Using Tuple Packing

Tuples – Deleting
In this example, we are deleting a tuple using DEL keyword. The
output will be in the form of error because after deleting the tuple, it
will give a NameError.
Note: Remove individual tuple elements is not possible, but we can
delete the whole Tuple using Del keyword.

Multiple Data Types with Tuple
Tuples in Python are heterogeneous in nature. This means tuples
support elements with multiple datatypes.

Dictionaries in Python
A Python dictionary is a data structure that stores the value
in key: value pairs. Values in a dictionary can be of any data type and
can be duplicated, whereas keys can’t be repeated and must
be immutable.
Example: Here, The data is stored in key:value pairs in dictionaries,
which makes it easier to find values.
How to create Dictionary
A dictionary can be created by placing a sequence of elements within
curly {} braces, separated by a ‘comma’.

Items
Removing Dictionary Items
We can remove items from dictionary using the following methods:
del: Removes an item by key.
pop(): Removes an item by key and returns its value.
clear(): Empties the dictionary.
popitem(): Removes and returns the last key-value pair.
