I have a switch case statement, in which I pick tupple of various lengths.

choices = {'a': ('apple'), 'b': ('peas', 'beet')}
result = choices.get(key, 'default')
print(len(result)) 

#Output key :a gives 5(not 1, this is what I want), b gives 2.

How do I achieve this?

This is a minor typo. `('apple')` isn't a tuple. You mean `('apple',)` (note the trailing `,`). You're getting the length of the string right now. – Carcigenicate Apr 12 '20 at 18:19
`('apple')` this should be `('apple',)` – Ch3steR Apr 12 '20 at 18:19
