Null in JavaScript

Date: 2023-06-02
In JavaScript, null
is a primitive value signifying the intentional absence of an object value. It differs from undefined
, which represents an uninitialized variable. null
can be explicitly assigned to variables, checked using conditional statements (preferably with the strict equality operator, ===
), and passed to functions. While useful, mishandling null
can lead to errors. Alternatives like empty objects or arrays offer more structured ways to represent the absence of a value. Understanding these nuances is crucial for writing robust JavaScript code.
