Python .index() Function not Working in VS Code

Following a tutorial and this program won’t run as expected

my_tuple = {'a', 'p', 'p', 'l', 'e'}

print(my_tuple.index('p'))

Whenever I run this program, the terminal always outputs:

    print(my_typle.index('p'))
AttributeError: 'set' object has no attribute 'index'

Does VS Code’s Python not run these functions or, am I doing something wrong?

>Solution :

That’s not a tuple, it’s a set. A tuple uses Parentheses and an set uses Curly Brackets.

Proper code:

my_tuple = ('a', 'p', 'p', 'l', 'e')

print(my_tuple.index('p'))
