## What is a tuple?

A **tuple** is a generic container that can contain different data types. A tuple can hold 1 to 8 elements of different data types.

## Syntax

A tuple can be defined with the following syntax:

```C#
Tuple<data_type, ...> tuple_name = Tuple.Create(values, ...);
```
- `data_type`: This is the data type of the tuple elements. The data type of each element is defined separately.
- `Create(values)`: This method creates a tuple with the given values. Values are written according to the data types mentioned earlier.

For example, the following syntax creates a tuple of one integer, an array of float, and a string value:

```C#
Tuple<int, float[], string> myTuple = Tuple.Create(102, new float[] {1.1, 2.2, 3.3}, "Educative");
```



## Example
Let's consider the following example:

// Instantiate a 3-Item Tuple: Int, an Array of Floats and a String
Tuple<int, float[], string> myTuple = Tuple.Create(102, new float[] {1.1f, 2.2f, 3.3f}, "Educative");

// Access a Tuple item 
Console.WriteLine(myTuple.Item1); // Output: 102 
Console.WriteLine(myTuple.Item2); // Output: System.Singles[]
Console.WriteLine(myTuple.Item3); // Output: Educative

foreach (float theNumber in myTuple.Item2)
{ 
    Console.Write( $"{theNumber} "); // Output: 1.1 2.2 3.3
}

## Explanation

- Line 2: We create a `Tuple` class object and assign values.

- Lines 5–6: We print the `Tuple` items to the console.

- Lines 9–12: A `foreach` loop prints the values of the array object in the `Tuple`.

What are tuples in C# 10?

Tuples in C# are generic containers that store 1-8 elements of different types, created using Tuple.Create().
