Fix Python – How to change values in a tuple?

by

Question

Asked By – Dawood

I have a tuple called values which contains the following:

('275', '54000', '0.0', '5000.0', '0.0')

I want to change the first value (i.e., 275) in this tuple but I understand that tuples are immutable so values[0] = 200 will not work. How can I achieve this?

Now we will see solution for issue: How to change values in a tuple?

Answer

It’s possible via:

t = ('275', '54000', '0.0', '5000.0', '0.0')
lst = list(t)
lst[0] = '300'
t = tuple(lst)

But if you’re going to need to change things, you probably are better off keeping it as a list
