Python – Loop Tuples

Looping Through Tuple Items in Python

Table of Contents

Looping through tuple items in Python refers to iterating over each element in a tuple sequentially. This guide explores different looping techniques.

1. Looping Through Tuple Items with For Loop

The for loop in Python allows iteration over a sequence, such as a tuple, by accessing each item individually.

Example: Using a For Loop

tup = (25, 12, 10, -21, 10, 100)
for num in tup:
    print(num, end=' ')

Output: 25 12 10 -21 10 100

2. Looping Through Tuple Items with While Loop

The while loop is used to execute a block of code repeatedly as long as a condition evaluates to True.

Example: Using a While Loop

my_tup = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
index = 0

while index < len(my_tup):
    print(my_tup[index])
    index += 1

Output:

3. Looping Through Tuple Items with Index

Using an index allows access to tuple elements by iterating over a range corresponding to the tuple's length.

Example: Looping with Index

tup = (25, 12, 10, -21, 10, 100)
indices = range(len(tup))
for i in indices:
    print("tup[{}]:".format(i), tup[i])
