Examples

>>> import numpy as np
>>> a = np.arange(1e6)
>>> parray = blosc2.pack_array(a)
>>> len(parray) < a.size*a.itemsize
True
>>> a2 = blosc2.unpack_array(parray)
>>> np.array_equal(a, a2)
True
>>> a = np.array(['å', 'ç', 'ø'])
>>> parray = blosc2.pack_array(a)
>>> a2 = blosc2.unpack_array(parray)
>>> np.array_equal(a, a2)
True
