Signature de la méthode __set_format__

def __set_format__(typestr, fmt) 

Description

__set_format__.__doc__

You probably don't want to use this function.

  typestr
    Must be 'double' or 'float'.
  fmt
    Must be one of 'unknown', 'IEEE, big-endian' or 'IEEE, little-endian',
    and in addition can only be one of the latter two if it appears to
    match the underlying C reality.

It exists mainly to be used in Python's test suite.

Override the automatic determination of C-level floating point type.
This affects how floats are converted to and from binary strings.
