Python Tuple Methods

In Python, tuples are immutable, meaning their contents cannot be changed after creation. As a result, they have only two built-in methods:

Method	Description
count()	Returns the number of times a specified value appears in the tuple.
index()	Returns the index of the first occurrence of a specified value in the tuple.

Let’s see the code example of each method:

count() method

my_tuple = (1, 5, 2, 3, 5, 6)

print(my_tuple.count(5)) # Output: 2

In the above example, the number 5 appears two times in my_tuple, so count(5) returns 2.

index() method

my_tuple = (5, 10, 15, 10, 25)

print(my_tuple.index(10)) # Output: 1

In the above example, the index(10) returns the position of the first occurrence of the value 10 in the tuple. Since, 10 first appears at index 1, that’s the output.
