Create ctypes array from a Python array.

    Parameters
    ----------
    ctype : ctypes data type
        Data type of the array we want to convert to, such as mx_float.

    values : tuple or list
        Data content.

    Returns
    -------
    out : ctypes array
        Created ctypes array.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> x = mx.base.c_array(mx.base.mx_float, [1, 2, 3])
    >>> print len(x)
    3
    >>> x[1]
    2.0
