<h2 id="tuples"><a class="header" href="#tuples">Tuples</a></h2>
<p><strong><a href="https://youtu.be/U67Diy6SlTg">See this chapter on YouTube</a></strong></p>
<p>Tuples in Rust use <code>()</code>. We have seen many empty tuples already, because <em>nothing</em> in a function actually means an empty tuple:</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">fn do_something() {}
</code></pre>
<p>is actually short for:</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">fn do_something() -&gt; () {}
</code></pre>
<p>That function gets nothing (an empty tuple), and returns nothing (an empty tuple). So we have been using tuples a lot already. When you don't return anything in a function, you actually return an empty tuple.</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust">fn just_prints() {
println!(&quot;I am printing&quot;); // Adding ; means we return an empty tuple
}
fn main() {}
</code></pre></pre>
<p>But tuples can hold many things, and can hold different types too. Items inside a tuple are also indexed with numbers 0, 1, 2, and so on. But to access them, you use a <code>.</code> instead of a <code>[]</code>. Let's put a whole bunch of types into a single tuple.</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust">fn main() {
let random_tuple = (&quot;Here is a name&quot;, 8, vec!['a'], 'b', [8, 9, 10], 7.7);
println!(
&quot;Inside the tuple is: First item: {:?}
Second item: {:?}
Third item: {:?}
Fourth item: {:?}
Fifth item: {:?}
Sixth item: {:?}&quot;,
random_tuple.0,
random_tuple.1,
random_tuple.2,
random_tuple.3,
random_tuple.4,
random_tuple.5,
)
}
</code></pre></pre>
<p>This prints:</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">Inside the tuple is: First item: &quot;Here is a name&quot;
Second item: 8
Third item: ['a']
Fourth item: 'b'
Fifth item: [8, 9, 10]
Sixth item: 7.7
</code></pre>
<p>That tuple is of type <code>(&amp;str, i32, Vec&lt;char&gt;, char, [i32; 3], f64)</code>.</p>
<p>You can use a tuple to create multiple variables. Take a look at this code:</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust">fn main() {
let str_vec = vec![&quot;one&quot;, &quot;two&quot;, &quot;three&quot;];
}
</code></pre></pre>
<p><code>str_vec</code> has three items in it. What if we want to pull them out? That's where we can use a tuple.</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust">fn main() {
let str_vec = vec![&quot;one&quot;, &quot;two&quot;, &quot;three&quot;];
let (a, b, c) = (str_vec[0], str_vec[1], str_vec[2]); // call them a, b, and c
println!(&quot;{:?}&quot;, b);
}
</code></pre></pre>
<p>That prints <code>&quot;two&quot;</code>, which is what <code>b</code> is. This is called <em>destructuring</em>. That is because first the variables are inside a structure, but then we made <code>a</code>, <code>b</code>, and <code>c</code> that are not inside a structure.</p>
<p>If you need to destructure but don't want all the variables, you can use <code>_</code>.</p>
<pre><pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust">fn main() {
let str_vec = vec![&quot;one&quot;, &quot;two&quot;, &quot;three&quot;];
let (_, _, variable) = (str_vec[0], str_vec[1], str_vec[2]);
}
</code></pre></pre>
<p>Now it only creates a variable called <code>variable</code> but doesn't make a variable for the others.</p>
<p>There are many more collection types, and many more ways to use arrays, vecs, and tuples. We will learn more about them too, but first we will learn control flow.</p>
