No clue why Tuples in Python are immutable. \u00a0 It seems to me that this is a flaw in the language. \u00a0 I’m no expert on underlying programming language architecture. \u00a0 \u00a0But it seems to me that if I want a<\/p>\n
\nmyTuple = {('NAMED1':variable1,\n 'NAMED2':variable2,\n 'NAMED3':variable3)}\n<\/code><\/pre>
\nWhere there is some interrelation between variable1, variable2 and variable3. If I subsequently what to set NAMED3 to new variable4. There is no way to do this. <\/p>\nWouldn’t it be nice if one could do?
\n
\nmyTuple['NAMED3'] = variable4 \n<\/code><\/pre><\/p>\nSo now I’d have:
\n
\nmyTuple = {('NAMED1':variable1,\n 'NAMED2':variable2,\n 'NAMED3':variable4)}\n<\/code><\/pre><\/p>\nThis fails because of Tuples immutability. <\/p>\n
One way to overcome this is create a new Tuple and then delete the existing Tuple. \u00a0 \u00a0This becomes very interesting when I have \u00a0list of Tuples were you make a new tuple add it to the list and delete the existing Tuple.<\/p>\n
Seems like a lot of hassle for a language which is suppose to be very programmer friendly. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
