Taking the alternate value from tuple

Question

How to take the other(unmatched value) from tuple?

For example: I have val = 'y'

and t = ('y', 'n')

I want to return 'n' from the tuple. Something like

if val=='y':
   return 'n'
else:
   retun 'y'

Answer 1

You can use the following statement:

return t[0] if val == 'y' else t[1]

You can also index into a tuple:

return t[val == 'n']
