Numpy Data Types

The various data types supported by numpy are as follows

Numpy data type Storage Size Description
np.bool_ 1 byte can hold boolean values, like (True or False) or (0 or 1)
np.byte 1 byte can hold values from 0 to 255
np.ubyte 1 byte can hold values from -128 to 127
np.short 2 bytes can hold values from -32,768 to 32,767
np.ushort 2 bytes can hold values from 0 to 65,535

np.uint 8 bytes 0 to 18446744073709551615
np.longlong 8 bytes can hold values from -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807
np.ulonglong 8 bytes 0 to 18446744073709551615
np.half / np.float16 allows half float precision with
Format: sign bit, 5 bits exponent, 10 bits mantissa
