What is the conventional way to compute a sum of list of tuples in Python?

Question

Given a list of tuple-s, what is the conventional way to compute its sum?

We can define sum as a tuple in which every element is the sum of corresponding elements from all tuples in list.

For example, the sum of list [(1, 4), (1, -4), (1, 4)] is (3, 4).

Answer 1

Try:

data = [(1, 4), (1, -4), (1, 4)]
total_a = total_b = 0
for a,b in data:
    total_a += a
    total_b += b
print((total_a, total_b))
