…e formats) This allows better interoperation with the memoryview, e.g. support for ctypes arrays. Just like NumPy arrays, they also don't specify endianness: ```pycon >>> import numpy as np >>> memoryview(np.ndarray(3, dtype=np.float16)).format 'e' ``` But keep specified byteorder for byte-swapped types.
