Choice of appropriate data structure is an important step in designing algorithms. Suppose a text file contains student records on each line, and each record is of the format: Name of Student, Student ID, GPA. Now consider reading that file to create a list of lists, a list of tuples, or a tuple of tuples.

(a) If you just want to create a report using the data, would you choose a list or a tuple as the underlying data structure for the record?


(b) If you want to modify the name or student ID or GPA, would you choose a list or a tuple as the underlying data structure for the record?
