Скачать или смотреть Nulls and null checks - How to work safely with nulls in any codebase

Nulls have been a tricky problem in programming for decades. Tony Hoare, the inventor of the null even called it a billion-dollar mistake.

Semantically, nulls are necessary. They represent the absence of a value. For example, a user may fill in a form that has optional fields. They may leave the optional fields blank. That’s one reason for nulls.

The problem is that nulls can be difficult to work with and track.

In this video, we examine how we can work with nulls effectively in a codebase.
