change value 2d array in Python

Question

I have an array with 20 values, but value 16 is incorrent and must be replaced with the correct value. How can I do that?

texture[16] = 'sky13.jpg'

That code does not work for some reason. The error is "'tuple' object does not support item assignment"

Please recheck what exactly you're using. As the error suggests, you might be using a tuple instead of a list. — AnotherCodingEnthusiast

You're working with a tuple instead of a list. Convert it to a list first

texture = list(texture)
texture[16] = 'sky13.jpg

check what texture is

type(texture)

if it is tuple then convert it to list

textute = list(texture)

in python simple way to talk tuple object is immutable list object

Tuples in Python are **inmutable**, which means that you can't change the value once you assign it!

You need to convert the tuple to a list:

listOfTextures = list(texture)

And then you will be able to change the values you want to.
