Check whether a certain file type/extension exists in directory

Question

How would you go about telling whether files of a specific extension are present in a directory, with bash?

Something like

if [ -e *.flac ]; then 
echo t

#/bin/bash

myarray=(`find ./ -maxdepth 1 -name "*.py"`)
if [ ${#myarray[@]} -gt 0 ]; then 
    echo true 
else 
    echo false
