-   When attempting to pack a non-integer using any of the integer conversion
-   codes, if the non-integer has a :meth:`__index__` method then that method is
-   called to convert the argument to an integer before packing.

    For the ``'f'`` and ``'d'`` conversion codes, the packed representation uses
    the IEEE 754 binary32 (for ``'f'``) or binary64 (for ``'d'``) format,
    regardless of the floating-point format used by the platform.

    The ``'P'`` format character is only available for the native byte ordering
    (selected as the default or with the ``'@'`` byte order character). The byte
    order character ``'='`` chooses to use little- or big-endian ordering based
