"""tuples in python:
the lists are mutable, Python needs to allocate an extra memory block
in case there is a need to extend the size of the list object after it is created.
In contrary, as tuples are immutable and fixed size, Python allocates
just the minimum memory block required for the data.
As a result, tuples are more memory efficient than the lists."""

"""When to use Tuples over Lists:
Well, obviously this depends on your needs.
There may be some occasions you specifically do not what data to be changed.
If you have data which is not meant to be changed in the first place,
you should choose tuple data type over lists.
But if you know that the data will grow and shrink during the runtime of the application,
you need to go with the list data type."""

#A tuple is essentailly a list with limited uses. They are popular when making variables
#or containers that you don't want changed, or when making temporary variables.
#A tuple is defined with parentheses.
#Python has two built-in methods that you can use on tuples.
#Method Description
count()
Returns the number of times a specified value occurs in a tuple
index()
Searches the tuple for a specified value and returns the position
of where it was found
Tuples Definition:
Tuples are used to store multiple items in a single variable.
A tuple is a collection that is ordered and unchangeable.
There are 4 built-in data types:
-->Tuples
-->List
-->Set
-->Dictionary
Example of a Tuple:
coordinates = [(4,5), (6,7), (80,34)]
#Coordinates are a very common example of a tuple
