def add_tuple(tuple_a=(), tuple_b=()):

Description:

'add_tuple' function takes two tuples as arguments.
It returns a new tuple where each element is the sum of the elements at the
same index in the input tuples. If an input tuple has less than 2 elements,
it is assumed to be completed with 0s.

Arguments:
"tuple_a" - first tuple of integers
"tuple_b" - second tuple of integers

Return:
Function returns a new tuple with each element being sum of elements
at the same index in the input tuples.
