Why use tuples? Because they require less processing power from Python because they're immutable. Doesn't make a big diff in small programmes but if you're working on a big project it will improve speed and efficiency. Another thing: they are immutable (unlike lists), so they can be used as dictionary keys. Moreover, tuples can be packed and unpacked. Like this: tup = 'one' , 'two' , 'three' _1, _2, _3 = tup

Because tuple cannot be modified but list can be modified.Tuple is faster than list both are different.

Tuple is value data type, so it is faster. You can also make some good tricks with that: (a, b) = (b, a) you can switch values that easy.
