Multidimensional arrays are allowed (using NumPy syntax). Element-wise operations (e.g. ``+``, ``/``), matrix multiplication (``@``) and multidimensional indexing are supported; slices and views (currently) are not.
Tuples may contain a mixture of different types. They cannot be iterated over or dynamically indexed, although they may be indexed by constants and multiple assignment is supported.
User-defined classes are supported, provided their attributes are of other supported types (attributes that are not used in the kernel are ignored and thus unrestricted). When several instances of a user-defined class are referenced from the same kernel, every attribute must have the same type in every instance of the class.

.. tip::
Multiple variables of different types can be sent in one RPC call by returning a tuple, e.g. ::
def return_many() -> TTuple([TInt32, TFloat, TStr]):
return (4, 12.34, "hello",)
Which can be retrieved from a kernel with ``(a, b, c) = return_many()``
Kernels can freely modify attributes of objects shared with the host. However, by necessity, these modifications are actually applied to local copies of the objects, as the latency of immediate writeback would be unsupportable in a real-time environment. Instead, modifications are written back *when the kernel completes;* notably, this means RPCs called by a kernel itself will only have access to the unmodified host version of the object, as the kernel hasn't finished execution yet. In some cases, accessing data on the host is better handled by calling RPCs specifically to make the desired modifications.
