How do I change the value of any element to produce (say)
[[99,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0]] ?

To create a 2D list, that is a list of lists:
x = [[0] * ncols for i in nrows]
(Don't do what you were doing, because you end with many references to
the same list, and that will give you troubles.)
To set an item you do just:
x[0][0] = 99
Bye,

Many thanks, I don't think I would ever 'discovered' this.
If you are trying to emulate numerical arrays, you may want to use numpy,
instead.

import numpy
x = numpy.zeros([3,3], dtype=int)
x[0,0] = 99
