Note: empty array is converted to null by non-strict equal '==' comparison. Use is_null() or '===' if there is possible of getting empty array.
$a = array();
$a == null <== return true
$a === null < == return false
is_null($a) <== return false
null
null PHP'nin yokluk türü olup olası tek değeri null'dur.
Tanımsızdır ve değişkenler unset() ile null değere
çözümlenir.
null türüne çarpıtım
Uyarı
Bu özelliğin kullanımı PHP 7.2.0 itibariyle ÖNERİLMEMEKTE olup PHP 8.0.0'da tamamen KALDIRILMIŞTIR. Bu işleve kesinlikle güvenilmemelidir.
(unset) $var kullanarak bir değişken null
türüne çarpıtılırsa değişken kaldırılmaz fakat değersiz hale getirilmiş
olur ve sadece null değer döndürür.

NULL is supposed to indicate the absence of a value, rather than being thought of as a value itself. It's the empty slot, it's the missing information, it's the unanswered question. It's not a jumped-up zero or empty set.
This is why a variable containing a NULL is considered to be unset: it doesn't have a value. Setting a variable to NULL is telling it to forget its value without providing a replacement value to remember instead. The variable remains so that you can give it a proper value to remember later; this is especially important when the variable is an array element or object property.
It's a bit of semantic awkwardness to speak of a "null value", but if a variable can exist without having a value, the language and implementation have to have something to represent that situation. Because someone will ask. If only to see if the slot has been filled.
