"""
Return an ndarray of the provided type that satisfies requirements.
This function is useful to be sure that an array with the correct flags
is returned for passing to compiled code (perhaps through ctypes).
Parameters
----------
a : array_like
The object to be converted to a type-and-requirement-satisfying array.
dtype : data-type
The required data-type. If None preserve the current dtype. If your
application requires the data to be in native byteorder, include
a byteorder specification as a part of the dtype specification.
requirements : str or sequence of str
The requirements list can be any of the following
* 'F_CONTIGUOUS' ('F') - ensure a Fortran-contiguous array
* 'C_CONTIGUOUS' ('C') - ensure a C-contiguous array
* 'ALIGNED' ('A') - ensure a data-type aligned array
* 'WRITEABLE' ('W') - ensure a writable array
* 'OWNDATA' ('O') - ensure an array that owns its own data
* 'ENSUREARRAY', ('E') - ensure a base array, instead of a subclass

.. versionadded:: 1.20.0
Returns
-------
out : ndarray
Array with specified requirements and type if given.
See Also
--------
asarray : Convert input to an ndarray.
asanyarray : Convert to an ndarray, but pass through ndarray subclasses.
ascontiguousarray : Convert input to a contiguous array.
asfortranarray : Convert input to an ndarray with column-major
memory order.
ndarray.flags : Information about the memory layout of the array.
Notes
-----
The returned array will be guaranteed to have the listed requirements
by making a copy if needed.
Examples
--------
>>> x = np.arange(6).reshape(2,3)
>>> x.flags
C_CONTIGUOUS : True
F_CONTIGUOUS : False
OWNDATA : False
WRITEABLE : True
ALIGNED : True
WRITEBACKIFCOPY : False
>>> y = np.require(x, dtype=np.float32, requirements=['A', 'O', 'W', 'F'])
>>> y.flags
C_CONTIGUOUS : False
F_CONTIGUOUS : True
OWNDATA : True
WRITEABLE : True
ALIGNED : True
WRITEBACKIFCOPY : False
