my_tuple = (1, 2, 3)

try:
    # Attempt to change the second element
    print(my_tuple)
except TypeError as e:
    # Handle TypeError exception
    print(f"Error occurred: {e}")

# Immutability of Tuples and Exception Handling

In Python, once a tuple is created, its contents cannot be changed.

Attempting to violate the immutability of a tuple raises a `TypeError` exception.

To prevent errors in your program due to unexpected attempts to violate tuple immutability, you can use a `try`/`except` statement.

A `try`/`except` statement executes the code in the `except` block if an exception occurs in the `try` block.

```python title="Handling Tuple Immutability Exceptions"
my_tuple = (1, 2, 3)

try:
    # Attempt to change the second element
    my_tuple[1] = 5
except TypeError as e:
    # Handle TypeError exception
    print(f"Error occurred: {e}")
```

In this code, trying to change the second element of the tuple with `my_tuple[1] = 5` raises a `TypeError`.

As shown in the example code, the `except` block handles the `TypeError` exception and prints the error message.

In Python, tuples are immutable objects. Therefore, attempting to change an element of a tuple will result in a TypeError exception.
