//! Operations on tuples
//!
//! To access the _N_-th element of a tuple one can use `N` itself
//! as a field of the tuple.
//!
//! Indexing starts from zero, so `0` returns first value, `1`
//! returns second value, and so on. In general, a tuple with _S_
//! elements provides aforementioned fields from `0` to `S-1`.
//!
//! If every type inside a tuple implements one of the following
//! traits, then a tuple itself also implements it.
//!
//! * `Clone`
//! * `PartialEq`
//! * `Eq`
//! * `PartialOrd`
//! * `Ord`
//! * `Debug`
//! * `Default`
//! * `Hash`
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Accessing elements of a tuple at specified indices:
//!
//! ```
//! let x = ("colorless", "green", "ideas", "sleep", "furiously");
//! assert_eq!(x.3, "sleep");
//!
//! let v = (3, 3);
//! let u = (1, -5);
//! assert_eq!(v.0 * u.0 + v.1 * u.1, -12);
//! ```
//!
//! Using traits implemented for tuples:
//!
//! ```
//! let a = (1, 2);
//! let b = (3, 4);
//! assert!(a != b);
//!
//! let c = b.clone();
//! assert!(b == c);
//!
//! let d : (u32, f32) = Default::default();
//! assert_eq!(d, (0, 0.0f32));
//! ```
