Hi, In C, NULL is a #define, and #defines are typically all-caps. In D, null is real keyword recognized by the compiler, and those are typically lowercase. I am just guessing here, but I'd say the choice for 'null' instead of 'NULL' is just to be coherent with this.
Personally, I kinda like 'null'. :-) LMB On Thu, Jan 24, 2013 at 10:56 AM, Matthew Caron <matt.ca...@redlion.net> wrote: > This is probably a question for Walter, but maybe others know. > > Of all of the differences between C and D, the one which I have the most > difficulty adapting to is null being lowercase.
