Data Handling — Question 33

In Python, strings are immutable means that individual letter assignment for strings is not allowed. For example:

name='hello'
name[0] = 'p'

The above Python code will cause an error as we are trying to assign some value to an individual letter of a string.

Lists are mutable in Python means that we can assign values to individual elements of a list. For example:

a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
a[0] = 10

The above Python code will work correctly without any errors as Lists are mutable in Python.
