One of my collaborators would like to use 16bit float arrays. According to 
http://www.scipy.org/Tentative_NumPy_Tutorial, and references to float16 in 
numpy.core.numerictypes, it appears that this should be possible, but the 
following doesnt work:

a=arange(10, dtype='float16')
TypeError: data type not understood

Can anyone offer some advice?

Thanks,
Darren
