Converting a string to a tuple in python

Question

Okay, I have this string

tc=\'(107, 189)\'

and I need it to be a tuple, so I can call each number one at a time.

print(tc[         


        

Answer 1

You can use the builtin eval, which evaluates a Python expression:

>>> tc = '(107, 189)'
>>> tc = eval(tc)
>>> tc
(107, 189)
>>> tc[0]
107
