问题
I've seen the data types in the numpy package of the python, but I found the description of the data type intp a bit confusing, its description is like:
- intp: Integer used for indexing (same as C ssize_t; normally either int32 or int64)
My question is why the word indexing is used here if it is same as the ssize_t of C, as ssize_t is use to store the size of a variable?
