coerce_array(data,
dtype=None,
force_integer=False,
force_unsigned=False,
force_float=False,
force_gl=True)
| source code

Convert `data` to a contiguous array with the specified
properties.
The datatype of the array will match `dtype` as closely as possible.
If `force_integer` is `True`, it will be an integer datatype. If
`force_unsigned` is `True`, it will be an unsigned datatype. If
`force_float` is `True`, it will be a floating point datatype. If
`force_gl` is `True`, it will have an OpenGL equivalent.
If conversion to the resulting datatype would likely result in a
severe loss of precision or overflows, an error may be raised.
