This is a list comprehension, resulting in a list as its result.

This is not a tuple comprehension - Python does not have one.

Instead, it is a generator expression:

     x for x in range(10)

inside some brackets, which are just group as you might find in an 
expression like:

     (3 + 4) * 7

If you want a tuple, you need to write:

     X = tuple( x for x in range(10) )

which makes a tuple from an iterable (such as a list, but anything 
iterable will do). Here the iterable is the generator expression:

     x for x in range(10)
