+1, Jython's had a custom function for this forever, originally from its old jarray module: jarray.zeros(length, typecode). I think its swapped order of args are due to jarray probably predating the array module.

array.zeroes(typecode, length) seems like a good API to me. It's also consistant with the name for the numpy method which does the same.

Would have to be array.zeros() then :) Georg
