3.2.3 Tuples vs Lists

Tuples and lists are both ordered collections, but they serve different purposes.

---

Key Differences

• Tuples are immutable, lists are mutable
• Tuples are typically used for fixed data
• Lists are used for data that changes over time

---

When to Use Tuples

• When data should not be modified
• When representing structured records
• When immutability improves safety

---

When to Use Lists

• When elements need to be added or removed
• When data is processed dynamically
• When flexibility is required

---

📌 Note:
Choosing between tuples and lists depends on whether data mutability is needed.
