Tuples and unpacking

Use fixed groups of values and unpack them into clear names.

Keep values together

A tuple is an ordered collection that cannot be changed after creation. It is useful for a small fixed record such as a coordinate.

point = (4, 7)
print(point[1])

Output

7

Unpack by position

Unpacking assigns each tuple item to a variable in one step. The number of names must match the number of items.

name, score = ("Mina", 92)
print(f"{name}: {score}")

Output

Mina: 92
