 # Source: scipy/io/wavfile.py
 #
 # Added:
 # * read: also returns bitrate, cue markers + cue marker labels (sorted), loops, pitch
 #         See https://web.archive.org/web/20141226210234/http://www.sonicspot.com/guide/wavefiles.html#labl
 # * read: 24 bit & 32 bit IEEE files support (inspired from wavio_weckesser.py from Warren Weckesser)
 # * read: added normalized (default False) that returns everything as float in [-1, 1]
 # * read: added forcestereo that returns a 2-dimensional array even if input is mono
 #
 # * write: can write cue markers, cue marker labels, loops, pitch
 # * write: 24 bit support
 # * write: can write from a float normalized in [-1, 1] 
 # * write: 20180430_2335: bug fixed when size of data chunk is odd (previously, metadata could become unreadable because of this)
 #
 # * removed RIFX support (big-endian) (never seen one in 10+ years of audio production/audio programming), only RIFF (little-endian) are supported
 # * removed read(..., mmap)
