how to add value to a tuple?

I'm working on a script where I have a list of tuples like ('1','2','3','4'). e.g.:

list = [('1','2','3','4'),
        ('2','3','4','5'),
        ('3','4','5','6'),
        ('4','5','6','7')]

Now I need to add '1234', '2345','3456' and '4567' respectively at the end of each tuple. e.g:

list = [('1','2','3','4','1234'),
        ('2','3','4','5','2345'),
        ('3','4','5','6','3456'),
        ('4','5','6','7','4567')]

Is it possible in any way?

Based on the syntax, I'm guessing this is Python. The point of a tuple is that it is immutable, so you need to replace each element with a new tuple:

list = [l + (''.join(l),) for l in list]
# output:
[('1', '2', '3', '4', '1234'), 
 ('2', '3', '4', '5', '2345'), 
 ('3', '4', '5', '6', '3456'), 
 ('4', '5', '6', '7', '4567')]
