Note: an as yet undocumented feature of bytes (at least in Py3) is that
bytes(count) == bytes()*count == b'\x00'*count.
Python 3.1.3 docs for bytes() say same constructor args as for
bytearray(); this says about the source parameter: """If it is an
integer, the array will have that size and will be initialized with
null bytes"""
Yes, it is there in the builtin functions section, but not in the doc
strings. I opened an issue to fix the latter (#11310), with a proposed
patch.
