Summing a tuple in a list, in python

I know there must be a quick way to do this, but can't seem to find it. I need to find a way to add the items in a tuple. i was hoping for something like mytuple.sum.

I have a list of tuples like mylist= [(1,3,5,3),(1,5,5,5),....,(1,3,2,1),(1,1,1,2)]

and need to be able to call on it similarly to mylist[0].sum

Thanks!

It's hard to tell what you want, but it's probably one of

sum(mylist[0])

or

sum(sum(x) for x in mylist)

or

map(sum, mylist)
