Arrays in python

[Marcus]

Hello, I am but a beginner in the language and I have a small question.
Python seem to have a strange syntax concerning arrays (atleast for a C
programmer).
What i wanna do is simply something like:

array[0] = open("/home/talos/somefile");

and then be able to use it like so:

line = array[0].readline;
print line,;

How is this done in python?
