numerictypes: Define the numeric type objects

This module is designed so "from numerictypes import *" is safe. Exported symbols include:

Dictionary with all registered number types (including aliases):

sctypeDict

Type objects (not all will be available, depends on platform):

see variable sctypes for which ones you have
