How can I splice a tuple and assign to the same tuple?

Got some example code: 

var = [("f1","f2","f3"),("b1","b2","b3")]

print var

var[0][0] = var[0][0][1 : len(var[0][0])]

print var

if i wanted to replace "f1" with "1", how would i do that? thanks in advance!

You would have to assign the whole first element of the list a new tuple since tuples are immutable.

You would do that as follows:

var[0] = (var[0][0][1:],)+var[0][1:]

After this, the value of var will be:

[("1","f2","f3"),("b1","b2","b3")]
