Note that, though it is callable, ‘tuple’ is not a function but a type:
>>> tuple
<type 'tuple'>
>>> len
<built-in function len>
You can use the built-in ‘type’ type to get the type of any object:
>>> foo = 12
>>> type(foo)
<type 'int'>
>>> bar = 1, 2, 3
>>> type(bar)
<type 'tuple'>
>>> type(tuple)
<type 'type'>
>>> type(len)
<type 'builtin_function_or_method'>
>>> type(type)
<type 'type'>
