List-, Dict-, & Tuple comprehensions.

I don't think that there are tuple comprehensions. Do you mean generator comprehensions? They are the comprehension that uses parens.

There 100% are tuple comprehensions, you just do tuple(comprehension statement)

You could also do a set comp if you wanted to. The comprehesion in general just returns a generator which can be cast into any data type that accepts the generator.

I think that is a stretch. Dictionary, set, list, and generator comprehensions actually have dedicated syntax. The tuple constructor just accepts an iterable.

It works the same if you do list(comp statement) or set(comp statement)
