Ezio Melotti <ezio.melo...@gmail.com> added the comment:
That's because with [{}] * 3 you get a list with 3 copies of the same object,
so all the elements in c refer to the same dict:
>>> a = [{}, {}, {}]
>>> b = [{}] + [{}] + [{}]
>>> c = [{}] * 3
>>> map(id, a)
[12850496, 12850784, 12850928]
>>> map(id, b)
[12851648, 12851072, 12851792]
>>> map(id, c)
[12852080, 12852080, 12852080]
