difference between () and [] in array initialization in swift

Question

As I am new to swift, I couldn't understand the difference between the below two code snippets or are they both identical

var lisA = (1,2,3)

var lisB = [1,2,3]

I would highly recommend reading the tuples and arrays section of the language guide. They are very different things. — Hamish

Both the answer is good, and the last link too. It really depends on what your question is. But in case if it's solely about array initialization, here's another link that should help: stackoverflow.com/questions/41433678/… — user7014451

thankyou @dfd, the question was just out of curiosity where i thought there might be something similar to a list comprehension in python — Amey Kumar Samala

@AmeyYadav, Swift has lots of thing similar to python. Swift Tuples,arrays seems similar(as I don't know a lot about python) concept as in python tuples/lists. — BangOperator

lisA is a Tuple, lisB is an Array. These are not the same type.
