Tuples

Can someone explain what tuples is in simpler terms. Not that what Amit said is confusing. I tried the challenge and part 2 and 3 is really confusing. On the discussion "tuple 2 chalenge" I got the code. If someone could help and reach to me as soon as possible.

Hi arnavthecoder,

Tuples in a nutshell are a collection of values encapsulated by parentheses and separated by a comma, like arrays tuples by default are accessible via indexes unless you give them explicit names, see the below link as I've gone into a bit of details using this challenge as an example.
