How do i use tuples in python?

Tuples are the same as lists. Instead of using square brackets they use parentheses, also known as round brackets.

Note: Tuples are immutable when I try to change the value of index zero below, it would not allow it, and instead printed the error; "object does not support item assignment".

Define a tuple.

>>> characters = ("goofy", "daffy", "popeye")
>>> print(characters)
('goofy', 'daffy', 'popeye')

Try to assign another value to index zero, changing it from goofy to olive.

>>> characters[0] = "olive"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: 'tuple' object does not support item assignment
