The Null Type

The Null type, has only the special value null. NUll is also its literal. The value undefined is actually a derivative of the value null, so JavaScript defines them as equal to each other. alert(null == undefined);    //outputs "true" Undefined is the value assigned when a variable is declared and not initialized. Null is the value used to represent an object that doesn't exist.
