Tuple

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.)

Python et Haskell ont tous deux un type de données tuple ainsi qu'un type de données liste.
