Sequence unpacking in tuples

Question

Could you please tell me about it with example?
And why the * change a tuples into a list?

Answer 1

Rouza, sequence unpacking in Python is basically assigning the items within a tuple to multiple variables. You are dismembering the tuple into new variables, while keeping the original intact. This is useful for handling data further.
Example:
#begin
numbers = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

a, *b, c = numbers
#end

In this case:

a gets the first element, the number 1.
c gets the last one, number 5.
b collects the middle elements because you used the * operator. B = [2,3,4], then, and is a list.

Here's the beauty of it: the * operator collects elements into a list because lists are more flexible. Python understands we will do something with this data (add more numbers, split them, calculate them).
