The suffix (4 or 8) * specifies the number of bytes in the string. * * On platforms that appear to use (see _PyFloat_Init()) IEEE-754 formats * these functions work by copying bits. On other platforms, the formats the * 4- byte format is identical to the IEEE-754 single precision format, and * the 8-byte format to the IEEE-754 double precision format, although the * packing of INFs and NaNs (if such things exist on the platform) isn't * handled correctly, and attempting to unpack a string containing an IEEE * INF or NaN will raise an exception. * * On non-IEEE platforms with more precision, or larger dynamic range, than * 754 supports, not all values can be packed; on non-IEEE platforms with less * precision, or smaller dynamic range, not all values can be unpacked. What * happens in such cases is partly accidental (alas). */
