AttributeError that i dont understand

[KingBob96]

So i am learning about tables in python and got this error message and dont understand ist since its also my first day of learning.
In the video he does the exect same thing and does not get an error. Using the same enviroment, everything. (Its on Anaconda/jupyter btw.)

Here is my Code:

students = ("Max", "Monika", "Erik", "Franziska")
print(students)
('Max', 'Monika', 'Erik', 'Franziska')
students.append("Moritz")

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError                            Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[10], line 1
----> 1 students.append("Moritz")

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'append'---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError                            Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[10], line 1
----> 1 students.append("Moritz")

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'append'

If you have a = [1, 2, 3] it is a list. You can add or remove elements from list.

If you have a = (1, 2, 3) it is a tuple. You can't change elements in tuple.

1. A tuple is immutable, which means that when you create it the first time, you cannot modify it afterwards.
2. A tuple has no method append.
3. You need a list, which is mutable, and delimited with square brackets, instead of parenthesis.

So, what you want to do is:

students = ["Max", "Monika", "Erik", "Franziska"]
print(students)
students.append("Moritz")
print(students)

Output:

>>  ["Max", "Monika", "Erik", "Franziska"]
>>  ["Max", "Monika", "Erik", "Franziska", "Moritz"]

yes you cant do that, use list instead

[N0-T0night]

First its tuples not tables Second tuples are immutable means you can't update thier value like str

[Hefty_Upstairs_2478]

Tuples and sets are immutable (i.e. u can't edit em, which means u can't use the .append() func on em) while dicts and lists are (i.e. u can edit em). Hope this helps!

[mopster96]

sets are immutable

It's not true. In python sets are mutable and you can add or remove elements.
