Python Tuple Quiz [15 Tuple Quiz Questions]

This Python tuple quiz provides Multiple Choice Questions(MCQs) to test your understanding of Python tuples, from their basic creation and accessing elements to their unique properties and common use cases

Each question comes with a clear explanation for its answer, helping you to understand why it’s correct. The quiz covers questions on the below topics.

Tuple Creation: Different ways to define tuples, including single-element tuples.
Indexing and Slicing: Accessing specific elements or sub-sequences.
Immutability: Understanding the implications of tuples being unchangeable.
Tuple Methods: Exploring the limited but useful methods available for tuples (e.g., count(), index()).
Nesting: Working with tuples containing other data structures.

1. What will be the output of the following Python code?

x, y, z = (10, 20, 30)
print(y)

Error

2. A Python tuple can also be created without using parentheses

False

True

3. Why can tuples be used as dictionary keys or elements in a set, unlike lists?

Because they are ordered.

Because they can contain mixed data types.

Because they are immutable and thus hashable.

Because they are faster to process.

4. What will be the output of the following code?

aTuple = "Yellow", 20, "Red"
a, b, c = aTuple
print(a)

(‘Yellow’, 20, ‘Red’)

TyepeError

Yellow

5. What will be the output of the following Python code?

my_tuple = (1, 2, 3)
my_tuple[0] = 5
print(my_tuple)

(1, 2, 3)

(5, 2, 3)

(5, 1, 2, 3)

Error

6. What will be the output of the following Python code?

data = (10, 20, 30, 40)
print(data[::-1])

(10, 20, 30, 40)

(40, 30, 20, 10)

[40, 30, 20, 10]

Error

7. How are tuples compared in Python?

By length only.

Element by element from left to right.

By their hash values.

Tuples cannot be compared.

8. How do you convert a list my_list = [1, 2, 3] into a tuple?

my_tuple = (my_list)

my_tuple = my_list.to_tuple()

my_tuple = tuple(my_list)

my_tuple = list_to_tuple(my_list)

9. What is the primary characteristic of Python tuples that differentiates them from lists?

Tuples are ordered, while lists are unordered.

Tuples are mutable, while lists are immutable

Tuples are immutable, while lists are mutable.

Tuples can only store numbers, while lists can store any data type.

10. What is “tuple packing and unpacking”?

Compressing a tuple into a smaller file size.

Converting a list to a tuple and vice versa.

Assigning multiple values to multiple variables simultaneously (packing) and vice-versa (unpacking).

Storing tuples within other tuples.

11. What is the type of the following variable?

t= ("Orange")
print(type(t))

list

tuple

array

str

12. Given t1 = (1, 2, 3) and t2 = (3, 4), what is the result of t1 + t2?

(1, 2, 3, 3, 4)

(1, 2, 3, 4)

(1, 2, 3, (3, 4))

Error

13. Which method is used to count the number of times a specified value appears in a tuple?

tuple.find_all()

tuple.occurrences()

tuple.count()

tuple.frequency()

14. What will be the output of the following code?

tuple1 = (11, 'a')
print(max(tuple1))

TypeError

‘a’

15. How do you correctly create a tuple containing only one element, say the number 5?

my_tuple = (5)

my_tuple = 5,

my_tuple = tuple(5)

my_tuple = {5}

16. What will be the output of the following code?

aTuple = (100, 200, 300, 400, 500)
print(aTuple[-2])
print(aTuple[-4:-1])

IndexError: tuple index out of range

400
(200, 300, 400)

17. Which of the following is an advantage of using tuples over lists in certain scenarios?

Faster insertion and deletion of elements.

More memory efficient for large datasets.

Can be used as dictionary keys or set elements.

Easier to modify after creation.

18. Choose the correct way to access value 20 from the following tuple

aTuple = ("Orange", [10, 20, 30], (5, 15, 25))

aTuple[1:2][1]

aTuple[1:2](1)

aTuple[1:2][1]

aTuple[1][1]

19. Given t = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), which assignment correctly unpacks the first, last, and middle elements into separate variables?

first, *middle, last = t

first, middle, last = t[0], t[1:-1], t[-1]

first = t[0]; last = t[-1]; middle = t[1:4]

All of the above (with subtle differences)

20. What will be the output of the following Python code?

coords = ((1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6))
print(coords[1][0])

21. What will be the output of the following tuple operation?

aTuple = (100, 200, 300, 400, 500)
aTuple.pop(2)
print(aTuple)

(100, 200, 400, 500)

(100, 300, 400, 500)

Error

22. Given nums = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), what does nums[::2] return?

(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

(1, 3, 5)

(2, 4)

(5, 3, 1)

23. What will be the output of the following Python code?

data = ([1, 2], [3, 4])
data[0].append(5)
print(data)

([1, 2], [3, 4])

([1, 2, 5], [3, 4])

([1, 2], [3, 4], 5)

Error (TypeError)

24. What will be the output of the following tuple operation?

aTuple = (100,)
print(aTuple * 2)

TypeError

(100, 100)

(200)

25. Given data = (10, 20, 30, 40, 50), what does data[1:4] return?

(10, 20, 30)

(20, 30, 40)

(20, 30, 40, 50)

(10, 20, 30, 40)
