How do I create a namedtuple in Python?

You can create a namedtuple by importing it from the collections module. Here's an example:

from collections import namedtuple

Point = namedtuple('Point', ['x', 'y'])
point = Point(10, 20)
print(point.x, point.y)  # Output: 10 20

What are the benefits of using namedtuples?

Namedtuples provide a way to create lightweight, immutable objects that have named fields, making your code more readable and self-documenting.

Can I add methods to a namedtuple?

Namedtuples are immutable and don't support adding methods directly, but you can subclass them to add methods if needed.

Are namedtuples memory efficient?

Yes, namedtuples are more memory efficient than regular classes because they use less memory and have a smaller footprint.
