noun

Tupel

In some programming languages, a data type that is similar but distinct from the list data type, whose instances are characterized by having a rather fixed arity, and the elements of which instances can differ from each other by data type. (Note: this definition may overlap with the previous one.)

Sowohl Python als auch Haskell haben einen Tupel-Datentyp sowie einen List-Datentyp.
