Iterating over tuples

Looping over elements in a tuple

Tuple support looping through it’s elements with for loop and also while loop. Let’s see examples using both loops techniques.

Using for loop

Example

Looping through tuples using a for loop without index

looping over a tuple using for loop without index

  for i in range(len(colors)):
      print(colors[i])

Example

Looping through tuples using an index

using for loop with a tuple

  for i in range(len(colors)):
      print(colors[i])

Using while loop

To loop through the elements of a tuple using while loop, you use indexs to access or visit each element, so knowning the length of a tuple is necessary. You can using len() built-in function to get the exact length

Example

using while loop with a tuple

  i = 0

  while i < len(tuple):
     print(tuple[i])
