Re: How to increase the speed of this program?

Thanks, that's indeed faster than array(t, [v]*n) but what I had in
mind was something like an additional constructor:

array.filledarray(typecode, repeat_value, repeat_count)

which I speculate should be even faster.

before you add a new API, you should probably start by borrowing the repeat code from Object/stringobject.c and see if the speedup is good enough.
