Python Tuples – True or False Questions for Quick Practice

Test your understanding of Python tuples with these beginner-level true or false questions. Practice key tuple concepts like immutability, indexing, and syntax in a quick review format.

🔍 True or False

🟢 Beginner

  1. Tuples in Python are immutable.
    2. Answer

    ✅ True – Once a tuple is created, its elements cannot be changed, added, or removed.

  2. Tuples can contain elements of different data types.
    3. Answer

    ✅ True – A tuple can hold elements of various types, such as integers, strings, and even other tuples.

  3. The parentheses are required when creating a tuple.
    4. Answer

    ❌ False – While parentheses are commonly used, they're not strictly necessary. A tuple can be created by just separating values with commas.

  4. The 'count()' method is available for tuples.
    5. Answer

    ✅ True – Tuples have the count() method which returns the number of times a specified value appears in the tuple.

  5. The 'index()' method can be used to find the position of an element in a tuple.
    6. Answer

    ✅ True – The index() method returns the first occurrence of the specified value in the tuple.

🟡 Intermediate

  1. Tuple slicing works the same way as list slicing.
    2. Answer

    ✅ True – Both tuples and lists use the same slicing syntax and behavior, though tuples return new tuples while lists return new lists.

  2. The method 'append()' can be used to add an element to a tuple.
    3. Answer

    ❌ False – Tuples are immutable and don't support methods that modify them, including append().

  3. The expression 'my_tuple[1:3]' returns elements at index 1 and 2.
    4. Answer

    ✅ True – Slices are exclusive of the end index, so this returns elements from index 1 up to but not including index 3.

  4. Tuples are faster than lists for accessing elements.
    5. Answer

    ✅ True – Because of their immutability, tuples can be slightly faster than lists for element access operations.

🔴 Advanced

  1. A tuple with a single element can be created by placing a comma after the element.
    2. Answer

    ✅ True – To create a single-element tuple, you need to include a trailing comma (e.g., (1,) or just 1,).
