Creating a tuple
As you build your recipe scaler, you may need to convert between units. Let's say you need to store standard conversion factors that should never change (like cups to milliliters: 1 cup = 240 ml). A great way to store this is using tuples to represent the conversion pair. Tuples are perfect for this because they're immutable - conversion factors won't accidentally change during calculations.
