How can I set multiple variables to the same initial value efficiently?

I hate using the following way of defining variables;

a= 5, b=a, c=a, d=a, etc

I have a lot of variable taking the same intial value, how can do it efficiently?

Thanks in advance!

Simple: store your data in one array.

Having "a lot of variables" is a sign that you should be using arrays anyway.
