python怎么定义整数数组_什么是初始化了一个Python整数数组最快的方法？

Say I wanted to create an array (NOT list) of 1,000,000 twos in python, like this:

array = [2, 2, 2, ...... , 2]

What would be a fast but simple way of doing it?

解决方案

Is this what you're after?

# slower.

twosArr = array.array('i', [2] * 1000000)

# faster.

twosArr = array.array('i', [2]) * 1000000

You can get just a list with this:

twosList = [2] * 1000000

I updated this to reflect information in another answer. It would appear that you can increase the speed by a ratio of ~ 9 : 1 by adjusting the syntax slightly. Full credit belongs to @john-machin. I wasn't aware you could multiple the array object the same way you could do to a list.
