Is it possible to modify the contents of a collection declared as a tuple?

Tuples in Python are immutable objects, meaning their contents cannot be changed after creation. However, if a tuple contains mutable objects, such as lists, the contents of these nested objects can be modified.

Example:

t = (1, 2, [3, 4])
t[2].append(5)  # This is allowed
print(t)  # (1, 2, [3, 4, 5])

# But attempting to change the tuple itself will raise an error:
t[0] = 10  # TypeError: 'tuple' object does not support item assignment

Thus, the tuple itself cannot be changed, but the contents of mutable elements inside it can be.
