Convert list to tuple in Python

python, tuples

Solution

It should work fine. Don't use `tuple`, `list` or other special names as a variable name. It's probably what's causing your problem.

>>> l = [4,5,6]
>>> tuple(l)
(4, 5, 6)

>>> tuple = 'whoops'   # Don't do this
>>> tuple(l)
TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable

Problem

I'm trying to convert a list to a tuple. Most solutions on Google offer the following code: ``` l = [4,5,6] tuple(l) ``` However, the code results in an error message when I run it: TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable How can I fix this problem?
