Value types

Overview

NCP data types are mapped onto python types as follows:

NCP type	Python type
i32	int
u32	ncplib.u32
i64	ncplib.i64
u64	ncplib.u64
f32	float
f64	ncplib.f64
string	str
raw	bytes
data i8	array.array(typecode="b")
data i16	array.array(typecode="h")
data i32	array.array(typecode="i")
data u8	array.array(typecode="B")
data u16	array.array(typecode="H")
data u32	array.array(typecode="I")
data u64	array.array(typecode="L")
data i64	array.array(typecode="l")
data f32	array.array(typecode="f")
data f64	array.array(typecode="d")
