Array

[Larz60+]

list is an array, it can hold combination of mixed values, which makes is very flexable.

x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 'Harry']

to use array, you must import array (and define type), it is 'C' array
example:

from array import array
x = array('l', [1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

array is a function, allows more operations, at the cost of being less easy to use see: https://docs.python.org/3/library/array.html
