List vs Tuple in Python

EasyPython

Problem

Explain the difference between a list and a tuple in Python.

Implement compare_list_tuple(list_values, tuple_values). The inputs are JSON arrays representing a Python list and the values used to construct a Python tuple. Return a dictionary describing their types, mutability, indexability, hashability, and lengths. Assume all values are hashable scalar values, so the constructed tuple is hashable.

Signature: def compare_list_tuple(list_values, tuple_values):

Constraints

  • list_values is a Python list after JSON decoding.
  • tuple_values is a JSON array converted to a Python tuple.
  • All values in tuple_values are hashable scalar values.
  • The function must return the specified dictionary.

Function Signature

def compare_list_tuple(list_values, tuple_values):
