scipy.io.wavfile.read?Which data type is typically returned for audio samples when reading a WAV file using scipy.io.wavfile.read?
easy📝 Conceptual Q2 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Recall WAV file sample format
WAV files usually store audio samples as integers (e.g., 16-bit or 32-bit integers).Step 2: Confirm typical return type
scipy.io.wavfile.readreturns the audio data as an integer NumPy array.Final Answer:
Integer array -> Option BQuick Check:
Sample data type = Integer array [OK]
Quick Trick: WAV samples are integers, not floats [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Assuming float samples by default
- Expecting string or boolean arrays
- Confusing with normalized audio data
