Hi monks

Somewhere in a code, I want to populate a (n+1)-vector with one 1 (at the beginning) and then n 0's, like (1, 0, 0, 0).

The first snippet I came with is this ugly unperlish code :
my @poly1_coeffs = () ; push @poly1_coeffs, 1 ; foreach (1..$n) { push @poly1_coeffs, 0 ; }
Then I became a little more enlightened and wrote
my @poly_coeffs = (0) x ($n + 1) ; $poly_coeffs[0]++ ;
Do you see something else/shorter/better ?

Update : I'm dumb.

Thank you, monks.
