bookDelete a Tuple

Keep in mind that a tuple is an immutable data structure, which means you can't make changes to it once it's been created. This includes removing items from the tuple. However, you can delete the entire tuple using the del statement.


              
1234

            
tuple_1 = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
del tuple_1

print(tuple_1)
copy

Removing Items

Note

There's a workaround if you want to remove items from a tuple. First, you need to convert the tuple into a list since lists are mutable and can be modified. After making the desired changes to the list, you can then convert it back into a tuple.

Let's dive into an example.


              
12345

            
tuple_1 = (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 ,80)
list_1 = list(tuple_1)
list_1.remove(80)
tuple_1 = tuple(list_1)
print(tuple_1)
copy
