title: Initialising an array of fixed size in Python
body: <p>I would like to know how i can initialize an array(or list), yet to be populated with values, to have a defined size.</p>
  <p>For example in C:</p>
  <pre class="lang-c prettyprint-override"><code>int x[5]; /* declared without adding elements*/
  </code></pre>
  <p>How do I do that in Python?</p>
