Use ``t = PyTuple_New(n)`` instead, and fill it with objects using -``PyTuple_SetItem(t, i, o)`` -- note that this "eats" a reference count of -``o``, so you have to :c:func:`Py_INCREF` it. Lists have similar functions -``PyList_New(n)`` and ``PyList_SetItem(l, i, o)``. Note that you *must* set all -the tuple items to some value before you pass the tuple to Python code -- -``PyTuple_New(n)`` initializes them to NULL, which isn't a valid Python value. +You can't.
