Yes, nice. And to make that possible we have to write
('one-string-item',) instead of ('one-string-item') if we want a tuple
with one string inside. Sometimes that feels like a wart to me, but
now I know it, sometimes not.
That has very little to do with tuples. You could just as easily write
'this is a '\
'long string'
It's the dangling comma that's required to specify a tuple:
>>> 1,
(1,)
>>>
