Creating implementation for idiom 306 : Ensure list capacity

# 306 Ensure list capacity

Created by

Lead paragraph

Preallocate memory in the list x for a minimum total capacity of 200 elements.

This is not possible in all languages. It is only meant as a performance optimization, should not change the length of x, and should not have any effect on correctness.
