Python Tuple [ 33 exercises with solution]

A tuple is a container which holds a series of comma-separated values (items or elements) between parentheses such as an (x, y) co-ordinate. Tuples are like lists, except they are immutable (i.e. you cannot change its content once created) and can hold mix data types.

You may read our Python tuple tutorial before solving the following exercises.

Python: Tips of the Day

Chunks a list into smaller lists of a specified size:

Example:

from math import ceil

def tips_chunk(lst, size):
  return list(
    map(lambda x: lst[x * size:x * size + size],
      list(range(0, ceil(len(lst) / size)))))

print(tips_chunk([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], 3))

Output:

[[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]]
