How do I declare an array in Python?
arrays, list, python
Solution
variable = []
Now `variable` refers to an empty list*.
Of course this is an assignment, not a declaration. There's no way to say in Python "this variable should never refer to anything other than a list", since Python is dynamically typed.
*The default built-in Python type is called a list, not an array. It is an ordered container of arbitrary length that can hold a heterogenous collection of objects (their types do not matter and can be freely mixed). This should not be confused with the `array` module, which offers a type closer to the C `array` type; the contents must be homogenous (all of the same type), but the length is still dynamic.
