 A conforming implementation of the array API standard must provide and support the following data types.

-Data types ("dtypes") are objects that can be used as `dtype` specifiers in functions and methods (e.g., `zeros((2, 3), dtype=float32)`). A conforming implementation may add methods or attributes to data type objects; however, these methods and attributes are not included in this specification.
