is there a shorter way to write this one???
Just a note on this ---
This will work fine for immutable types (such as integers or strings). But you can get into trouble if you do this with mutable types.
eg:
>>> l = [[]] * 10 # A list of ten empty lists >>> l [[], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], []] >>> l[3].append(2) >>> l [[2], [2], [2], [2], [2], [2], [2], [2], [2], [2]]
