:Actually, the task has always been about "null". In fact, the original name of the task was [[Null]]. Most of the solutions were added during this time. It was renamed to "Undefined values/Check if a variable is defined" in a collective renaming which caused a ton of confusion. The task description has always talked about "null". --[[Special:Contributions/208.80.119.67|208.80.119.67]] 22:21, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
 
::For a long time, the task included [http://rosettacode.org/mw/index.php?title=Null_object&oldid=125487 this sentence]: ''Note: the title of this article does not appropriately represent the task. The task is about "null"-like values in various languages, which may or may not be related to the defined-ness of variables in your language.'' This sentence implied that the title, "Undefined values/Check if a variable is defined", was wrong. I renamed the page to "Null object", a phrase from the task description. This helps languages where the [[null object]] is a ''defined'' value, like <code>nil</code> in Common Lisp, <code>f</code> in Factor, <code>None</code> in Python, or <code>nil</code> in Ruby. --[[User:Kernigh|Kernigh]] 01:13, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
