What?
In python there is no difference whether your object has any names
mapped to it or not. Its all the same, and object itself does not even
know.
Moreover, (1, 2) is tuple rather than 'array'. If you mean array as
implemented as array, then list is what you want. If you mean array
literally, there is special type 'array' somewhere in stdlib.
As for "can't do":
>>> a = [1,2]
>>> dict([a])
{1: 2}
>>> a = (1,2)
>>> dict([a])
{1: 2}
