Welcome to the Python Tuples Quiz!
Tuples in Python are immutable, ordered collections that can store multiple items of different data types. Unlike lists, tuples cannot be modified after creation, making them useful for storing fixed data. This quiz will test your understanding of Python tuples, covering their properties, methods, and common use cases.
Each question is followed by the correct answer. Good luck!
