Dear Lev,

thank you a lot! Something like this should be part of the Numpy documentation. 
I like the diagram, looks very nice! Also, I’ve opened an issue regarding data 
types

https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/20662 
<https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/20662>

Some feedback from my side:

1. When calling numpy.array([1,2,3,4]) it gives me an int64 data type most of 
the time (two x86_64 systems, one arm64 system). The only time I’ve got int32 
was on a Raspberry Pi, which is a software limitation, since the CPU is 64 bit 
and they have even replaced their so-far 32bit only Raspberry Pi Zero with a 
64bit version (yes, one day Raspberry OS with 64 bit might actually become the 
default!). I don’t know what machine you are working on, but int64 should be 
the default.
2. x64 refers to the obsolete Intel Itanium architecture (mentioned once). 
Should be x86_64.
3. np.errstate looks nice, I could use that for my pull request as well.

Many thanks & best regards, Michael
