Is it possible to insert new elements into an existing tuple?

In most programming languages, tuples are immutable data structures, meaning that once created, their contents cannot be changed — elements cannot be added or removed.
For example, in Python, a tuple cannot be modified:
my_tuple = (1, 2, 3)
# my_tuple[0] = 10 # Error
# my_tuple.append(4) # Error
If you need to add elements, a new tuple is created that combines the old one with the new elements:
new_tuple = my_tuple + (4, 5)
Thus, you cannot insert new elements into an existing tuple, but you can create a new tuple based on the existing one with added elements.
