This module will only be available when pygame can use the external numpy package. Sound data is made of thousands of samples per second, and each sample is the amplitude of the wave at a particular moment in time. For example, in 22-kHz format, element number 5 of the array is the amplitude of the wave after 5/22000 seconds. Each sample is an 8-bit or 16-bit integer, depending on the data format. A stereo sound file has two values per sample, while a mono sound file only has one. Supported array systems are numpy The array type to use can be changed at runtime using the use_arraytype() method, which requires one of the above types as string. Sounds with 16-bit data will be treated as unsigned integers, if the sound sample type requests this.
