The ``'q'`` and ``'Q'`` type codes are available only if
the platform C compiler used to build Python supports C :c:type:`long long`,

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 :attr:`itemsize` attribute.

It may be necessary to configure and compile Python with certain compiler flags
to enable this mode. For example, it is enabled by default with recent versions
of Irix, but with Solaris 2.6 and 2.7 you need to do something like::

standard mode, it is always represented by one byte.

(2)
The ``'q'`` and ``'Q'`` conversion codes are available in native mode only if
the platform C compiler supports C :c:type:`long long`, or, on Windows,
:c:type:`__int64`. They are always available in standard modes.

(3)
When attempting to pack a non-integer using any of the integer conversion
codes, if the non-integer has a :meth:`__index__` method then that method is
called to convert the argument to an integer before packing.

.. versionchanged:: 3.2
Use of the :meth:`__index__` method for non-integers is new in 3.2.

(3)
The ``'n'`` and ``'N'`` conversion codes are only available for the native
size (selected as the default or with the ``'@'`` byte order character).
For the standard size, you can use whichever of the other integer formats
fits your application.

(5)
(4)
For the ``'f'``, ``'d'`` and ``'e'`` conversion codes, the packed
representation uses the IEEE 754 binary32, binary64 or binary16 format (for
``'f'``, ``'d'`` or ``'e'`` respectively), regardless of the floating-point
format used by the platform.

(6)
(5)
The ``'P'`` format character is only available for the native byte ordering
(selected as the default or with the ``'@'`` byte order character). The byte
order character ``'='`` chooses to use little- or big-endian ordering based
on the host system. The struct module does not interpret this as native
ordering, so the ``'P'`` format is not available.

The IEEE 754 binary16 "half precision" type was introduced in the 2008
revision of the `IEEE 754 standard <ieee 754 standard_>`_. It has a sign
