>>> a = array.array("I", (0,))
>>> a.itemsize
4
>>> a = array.array("L", (0,))
>>> a.itemsize
8
According to <https://docs.python.org/3/library/array.html>, the “minimum size”
should be 2 and 4 respectively. It further says:
The actual representation of values is determined by the machine
architecture (strictly speaking, by the C implementation).
The actual size can be accessed through the itemsize attribute.
Are there any C compilers still in common use where the values will not be 4
and 8, as above?
