Int8Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;         // 1
Uint8Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;        // 1
Uint8ClampedArray.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT; // 1
Int16Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;        // 2
Uint16Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;       // 2
Int32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;        // 4
Uint32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;       // 4
Float32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;      // 4
Float64Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT;      // 8
