python [a]*b significa [a, a, ... b veces]
The [0] * x creates a list with x elements. So,
>>> [ 0 ] * 5
gives [0,0,0,0,0]
******** warn:they all point to the same object.
This is cool for immutables like integers but a pain for things like lists.
>>> t = [[]] * 5
>>> t
[[], [], [], [], []]
>>> t[0].append(5)
>>> t
[[5], [5], [5], [5], [5]]
