#7566 — I want this to work. [[]] * n

I want a list which contains n lists, which are all different. I had
read a page which was about the mutability of lists, and how the *
operator on lists just does a shallow copy. But I can't find it now.
Does anyone know of that page ?

Either way, How to get a list of list, with all original lists ?

Bit more verbose, but...
[[] for i in range(n)]
is effective.
