Is Python's ctypes.c_long 64 bit on 64 bit systems?

Question

In C, long is 64 bit on a 64 bit system. Is this reflected in Python\'s ctypes module?

Answer 1

Yes.

>>> ctypes.c_long(2**50)
c_long(1125899906842624)
>>> ctypes.c_long(2**64)
c_long(0)
>>> ctypes.c_long(2**63)
c_long(-9223372036854775808)
