      Read `count` items (as machine values) from the file object `f` and append them to the end of the array. If less than `count` items are available, EOFError is raised, but the items that were available are still inserted into the array. `f` must be a real built-in file object; something else with a read() method won't do.
      Parameters:
        `f` - Python builtin file object to retrieve data
        `count` - number of array elements to read

    - #### array_fromlist

          public final void array_fromlist​(PyObject obj)

      Read primitive values from a stream into the array without resizing. Data is read until the array is filled or the stream runs out. If the stream does not contain a whole number of items (possible if the item size is not one byte), the behaviour in respect of the final partial item and straem position is not defined.
      Parameters:
        `is` - InputStream to source the data from
      Returns:
        number of primitives successfully read
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - reflecting I/O errors during reading

    - #### fromstring

          public void fromstring​(PyObject input)

      Appends items from the object, which is a byte string of some kind (PyString or object with the buffer interface providing bytes) The string of bytes is interpreted as an array of machine values (as if it had been read from a file using the `fromfile()` method).
      Parameters:
        `input` - string of bytes containing array data

    - #### fromstring

          public void fromstring​(java.lang.String input)

      Appends items from the string, interpreting the string as an array of machine values (as if it had been read from a file using the `fromfile()` method).
      Parameters:
        `input` - string of bytes containing array data

    - #### fromunicode

          public void fromunicode​(PyUnicode input)

    - #### getArray

      Returns:
        the `Array` store.
      Throws:
        `PyIgnoreMethodTag`

    - #### getItemsize

          public int getItemsize()

      Getter for the storage size of the array's type.

      The sizes returned by this method represent the number of bytes used to store the type. In the case of streams, this is the number of bytes written to, or read from a stream. For memory this value is the minimum number of bytes required to store the type.

      This method is used by other methods to define read/write quanta from strings and streams.

      Values returned are:

      Type | Size
      `boolean` | 1
      `byte` | 1
      `char` | 1
      `short` | 2
      `int` | 4
      `long` | 8
      `float` | 4

          public PyObject pop​(int index)

      Removes the item with the index `index` from the array and returns it.
      Parameters:
        `index` - array location to be popped from the array
      Returns:
        array element popped from index

    - #### array_remove

          public final void array_remove​(PyObject value)

    - #### remove

          public void remove​(PyObject value)

      Remove the first occurrence of `value` from the array.
      Parameters:
        `value` - array value to be removed

    - #### array_reverse

          public final void array_reverse()

    - #### reverse

          public void reverse()

      Reverse the elements in the array

    - #### set

          public void set​(int i,
                          PyObject value)

      Set an element in the array - the index needs to exist, this method does not automatically extend the array. See `AbstractArray.setSize()` or `AbstractArray.ensureCapacity()` for ways to extend capacity.

      This code specifically checks for overflows of the integral types: byte, short, int and long.

      Parameters:
        `i` - index of the element to be set
        `value` - value to set the element to

    - #### set

          public void set​(int i,
                          int value)

    - #### set

          public void set​(int i,
                          char value)

    - #### array_tofile

          public final void array_tofile​(PyObject f)

    - #### array_write

          public void array_write​(PyObject f)

    - #### tofile

          public void tofile​(PyObject f)

      Write all items (as machine values) to the file object `f`.
      Parameters:
        `f` - Python builtin file object to write data

    - #### array_tolist

          public final PyObject array_tolist()

    - #### tolist

          public PyObject tolist()

      Convert the array to an ordinary list with the same items.
      Returns:
        array contents as a list

    - #### toStream

          public int toStream​(java.io.OutputStream os)
                       throws java.io.IOException

      Generic stream writer to write the entire contents of the array to the stream as primitive types.
      Parameters:
        `os` - OutputStream to sink the array data to
      Returns:
        number of bytes successfully written
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`

    - #### array_tostring

          public final PyObject array_tostring()

    - #### tostring

          public java.lang.String tostring()

      Convert the array to an array of machine values and return the string representation (the same sequence of bytes that would be written to a file by the `tofile()` method.)

    - #### tounicode

          public java.lang.String tounicode()

    - #### array_tounicode

          public final PyObject array_tounicode()

    - #### getBuffer

          public PyBuffer getBuffer​(int flags)

      Method by which the consumer requests the buffer from the exporter. The consumer provides information on its intended method of navigation and the features the buffer object is asked (or assumed) to provide. Each consumer requesting a buffer in this way, when it has finished using it, should make a corresponding call to `PyBuffer.release()` on the buffer it obtained, since some objects alter their behaviour while buffers are exported.

      The `PyBuffer` returned from this method is a one-dimensional array of single byte items that allows modification of the object state. The existence of this export prohibits resizing the byte array. This prohibition is not only on the consumer of the view but extends to any other operations, such as any kind or insertion or deletion.

      Specified by:
        `getBuffer` in interface `BufferProtocol`
      Parameters:
        `flags` - specifying features demanded and the navigational capabilities of the consumer
      Returns:
        exported buffer

    - #### traverse

          public int traverse​(Visitproc visit,
                              java.lang.Object arg)

      Description copied from interface: `Traverseproc`
      Traverses all directly contained `PyObject`s. Like in CPython, `arg` must be passed unmodified to `visit` as its second parameter. If `Visitproc.visit(PyObject, Object)` returns nonzero, this return value must be returned immediately by traverse. `Visitproc.visit(PyObject, Object)` must not be called with a `null` PyObject-argument.
      Specified by:
        `traverse` in interface `Traverseproc`

    - #### refersDirectlyTo

          public boolean refersDirectlyTo​(PyObject ob)
                                   throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

      Description copied from interface: `Traverseproc`
      Optional operation. Should only be implemented if it is more efficient than calling `Traverseproc.traverse(Visitproc, Object)` with a visitproc that just watches out for `ob`. Must return `false` if `ob` is `null`.
      Specified by:
        `refersDirectlyTo` in interface `Traverseproc`
      Throws:
        `java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException`
