Python – Change Datatype of Tuple Values

Last Updated : 13 Mar, 2023

Sometimes, while working with set of records, we can have a problem in which we need to perform a data type change of values of tuples, which are in its 2nd position, i.e value position. This kind of problem can occur in all domains that include data manipulations. Let’s discuss certain ways in which this task can be performed.

Input : test_list = [(44, 5.6), (16, 10)] Output : [(44, '5.6'), (16, '10')]  Input : test_list = [(44, 5.8)] Output : [(44, '5.8')]

Method #1 : Using enumerate() + loop This is brute force way in which this problem can be solved. In this, we reassign the tuple values, by changing required index of tuple to type cast using appropriate datatype conversion functions.

Python3

   # Python3 code to demonstrate working of
# Change Datatype of Tuple Values
# Using enumerate() + loop
 
# initializing list
test_list = [(4, 5), (6, 7), (1, 4), (8, 10)]
 
# printing original list
print("The original list is :"
       + str(test_list))
 
# Change Datatype of Tuple Values
# Using enumerate() + loop
# converting to string using str()
for idx, (x, y) in enumerate(test_list):
    test_list[idx] = (x, str(y))
 
# printing result
print("The converted records :"
       + str(test_list))
 
  

Output

The original list is :[(4, 5), (6, 7), (1, 4), (8, 10)] The converted records :[(4, '5'), (6, '7'), (1, '4'), (8, '10')]

Time Complexity: O(n²) where n is the number of elements in the list “test_list”.
Auxiliary Space: O(n) where n is the number of elements in the list “test_list”.

Method #2 : Using list comprehension The above functionality can also be used to solve this problem. In this, we perform similar task as above method, just in one liner way using list comprehension.

Python3

   # Python3 code to demonstrate working of
# Change Datatype of Tuple Values
# Using list comprehension
 
# initializing list
test_list = [(4, 5), (6, 7), (1, 4), (8, 10)]
 
# printing original list
print("The original list is :"
       + str(test_list))
 
# Change Datatype of Tuple Values
# Using list comprehension
# converting to string using str()
res = [(x, str(y)) for x, y in test_list]
 
# printing result
print("The converted records :"
       + str(res))
 
  

Output

The original list is :[(4, 5), (6, 7), (1, 4), (8, 10)] The converted records :[(4, '5'), (6, '7'), (1, '4'), (8, '10')]

Time Complexity: O(n*n) where n is the number of elements in the in the list “test_list”. The list comprehension is used to perform the task and it takes O(n) time.
Auxiliary Space: O(n) additional space of size n is created where n is the number of elements in the in the list “test_list”.

Create Dictionary Of Tuples - Python

The task of creating a dictionary of tuples in Python involves mapping each key to a tuple of values, enabling structured data storage and quick lookups. For example, given a list of names like ["Bobby", "Ojaswi"] and their corresponding favorite foods as tuples [("chapathi", "roti"), ("Paraota", "I

Python | Check if tuple has any None value

Sometimes, while working with Python, we can have a problem in which we have a record and we need to check if it contains all valid values i.e has any None value. This kind of problem is common in data preprocessing steps. Let's discuss certain ways in which this task can be performed. Method #1 : U

Python - Check if variable is tuple

We are given a variable, and our task is to check whether it is a tuple. For example, if the variable is (1, 2, 3), it is a tuple, so the output should be True. If the variable is not a tuple, the output should be False. Using isinstance()isinstance() function is the most common and Pythonic way to

Convert Tuple Value List to List of Tuples - Python

We are given a dictionary with values as a list of tuples and our task is to convert it into a list of tuples where each tuple consists of a key and its corresponding value. Note: Each key will appear with each value from the list of tuples. For example: We have a dictionary dict = {'Gfg' : [(5, ),

Python - Dictionary Tuple Values Update

The task of updating tuple values in a dictionary involves modifying each tuple in the dictionary by applying a specific operation to its elements. In this case, the goal is to update each element of the tuple based on a given condition, such as multiplying each element by a constant. For example, g

Sometimes, while working with data, we can have a problem in which we require to change the type of particular keys' value in list of dictionary. This kind of problem can have application in data domains. Lets discuss certain ways in which this task can be performed. Input : test_list = [{'gfg': 9,

Python | Combining tuples in list of tuples

Sometimes, we might have to perform certain problems related to tuples in which we need to segregate the tuple elements to combine with each element of complex tuple element( such as list ). This can have application in situations we need to combine values to form a whole. Let's discuss certain ways

Convert Dictionary to List of Tuples - Python

Converting a dictionary into a list of tuples involves transforming each key-value pair into a tuple, where the key is the first element and the corresponding value is the second. For example, given a dictionary d = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}, the expected output after conversion is [('a', 1), ('b', 2
