Tuples: Desugaring and Implementation

This lecture introduces tuples as finite ordered lists of elements, comparing them to vectors. It covers desugaring versus built-in implementation, the process of lexical analysis, parsing, and code generation. The lecture also delves into the implementation details of tuples in Scala, including TupleExpr, TupleType, and TuplePattern. Furthermore, it discusses the transformation of types, type checking, and code generation. Finally, it provides insights into desugaring tuples into case classes and offers practical advice for handling tuples in WebAssembly.
