Pre-processing data within a Julia structure

Remark: thinking of it, I could probably wrap the code above in a function, which returns the initialized structure Foo. But it seems like a convoluted way of doing it.

The function you are talking about is called a constructor for the type MyClass and this is indeed the way to approach it. Note that you have the function __init__ in python that serves the same purpose?
