Clear[f]

(f[#] = 0) & /@ {a, b, c};

=============
Hello,

my task is to set some function values f[[a], f[b], ... to zero. Is
there a nicer way to do this than this one:

Clear[f];
args = Partition[{a,b,c}, 1];
Apply[(f[#] = 0 )&, args, {1}];

Especially, can I avoid calling Partition?


Best wishes,
Karsten.
