Dictionary limitation

Dear All,

I have a query regarding dictionaries. Say I want to define a
dictionary to do with fruits as follows:

fruitDictionary={'apple':applePriceList, 'banana':bananaPriceList....}

where the value refers to the name of a list of the prices of apples
that I will add to as I find prices. Is there any way when I define the
dictionary, that I can initialise the lists to zero length (ie temp=[])
at the same time?

Your help much appreciated.

Best regards,


Paul Jolly
