Tuples

Explore the concept of tuples in C#, introduced in version 7.0, to group multiple values into a single unit. Learn how to create tuples, access elements by position or name, and use tuples to return multiple results from methods. This lesson helps you write cleaner code when handling related data values together.

We'll cover the following...

A tuple is a set of values enclosed in parentheses:
