I see in the newest pulls that "NULL" is not being tested correctly. I believe they should all use IS NULL or !IS null.

If I am correct, i would ask that all code be checked for this issue.


From Ali's Book and my experience in Database coding.


Determining whether it is null
However, because the == operator needs actual objects to compare, the
expression below cannot be compiled:
if (variable == null) // ← compilation ERROR
however this code must compile when it should not.
