Then don't do that. Python also has mechanisms for handling sequences of values, passing them to functions, etc. But that's getting off the point of your question. You asked "what programming languages ...?". I gave an example of how the python language gets around the problem scenario you used as an example. I'm not suggesting you use python or any other language, just providing one answer to your question.
