Sparse List 
Inspired by the post Populating a sparse list with random 1’s on StackOverflow.
A “sparse list” is a list where most values will be None (or some other default) and for reasons of memory efficiency you don’t wish to store these (cf. Sparse array).
This implementation has a similar interface to Python’s built-in list but stores the data in a dictionary to conserve memory.
Installation
sparse_list is available from The Python Package Index (PyPI) .
Installation is simply:
$ pip install sparse_list
Usage
See the unit-tests!
