The ejaculation is so powerful that it ruptures the endophallus, disconnecting the drone from the queen. The bulb of the endophallus is broken off inside of the queen during matingâso drones only mate once, and die shortly after. The leftover penis remaining in the queenâs vagina is referred to as the âmating signâ.
ctypes reference. ctypes is a foreign function library for Python. It provides C compatible data types, and allows to call functions in dlls/shared libraries. It can be used to wrap these libraries in pure Python.
Note: Quite some code samples references the ctypes c_int type. This type is an alias to the c_long type on 32-bit systems. So, you should not be confused if c_long is printed if you would expect c_int - they are actually the same type.
