  1. Unpacking Tuples

    1. Assign a tuple to a variable, e.g., fruits = ("apple", "banana", "cherry").

    2. Use multiple variables to extract values, e.g., (green, yellow, red) = fruits.

    3. Ensure the number of variables matches the number of tuple elements.

    Using Asterisk (*) for Partial Unpacking

    1. Assign a tuple with more elements, e.g., fruits = ("apple", "banana", "cherry", "strawberry").

    2. Use an asterisk to collect remaining values into a list, e.g., (green, yellow, *red) = fruits.

    3. Access the unpacked variables, e.g., print(green) or print(red).

    Unpacking Lists

    1. Assign a list to a variable, e.g., mybox = ['cables', 'headphones', 'USB'].

    2. Use variables to extract values, e.g., item1, item2, item3 = mybox.

    3. If the list has extra elements, use an asterisk to collect them, e.g., first, *middle, last = [1, 2, 3, 4].
