The most common answer is:
my_tuple = (0, 1, 2, “hi”, 4, 5)
Your code here…
string_tuple = (3,)
my_tuple = my_tuple[:3] + string_tuple + my_tuple[4:]
print(my_tuple)
This code aims to modify a tuple my_tuple
by replacing an element at a specific index (in this case, the 4th element, which is "hi"
) with another value (in this case, 3
). However, tuples in Python are immutable, meaning they cannot be changed once created.
This approach to reassign my_tuple
by creating a new tuple that includes elements from the original tuple around the replaced value is correct.
There seems to be a slight misunderstanding in the naming of string_tuple
. Since you intend to insert the integer 3
, the name string_tuple
might be misleading—it’s actually a tuple containing an integer.
Here’s the corrected version of the code, with a more accurate variable name:
my_tuple = (0, 1, 2, "hi", 4, 5)
# Correct variable name to reflect its content
integer_tuple = (3,)
my_tuple = my_tuple[:3] + integer_tuple + my_tuple[4:]
print(my_tuple)
By slicing my_tuple
around the index of the element to be replaced and concatenating the slices with integer_tuple
, you effectively create a new tuple with the desired modification.
