Null
 

Null is a special value for a pointer (or other kind of object reference) used to signify that the pointer intentionally does not have a target. Such a pointer is called a null pointer. Many implementations use a binary 0 (all bits zero) as the null value, as most operating systems consider it an error to try to access such a low memory address. Some languages use other nomenclature for such a pointer, e.g., nil, undefined, void reference, etc.
