Idiom #284 Create a zeroed list of integers

Create a new list a (or array, or slice) of size n, where all elements are integers initialized with the value 0.

var a = new int[n];

The default value for integers is zero, so we make an array of integers at the right size to get an empty set.
#include <stdlib.h>
int *a = calloc(n, sizeof(*a));

calloc automatically sets every byte allocated to 0.
