 You often need to specify the type when you assign an empty list or
 dict to a new variable, as mentioned earlier:

    a: list[int] = []

 You can use a simple empty list literal in a dynamically typed function (as the
 type of ``a`` would be implicitly ``Any`` and need not be inferred), if type
 of the variable has been declared or inferred before, or if you perform a simple
