11. Null Safety

12. Null Safety
- Nullable types and Non-Null Types
Eg: String - String? , View - View?
var greeting: String = "Hello, World"
greeting = null // Compilation Error
var nullableGreeting: String? = "Hello, World"
nullableGreeting = null // Allowed
- Safe call operator: ?.
var length = nullableGreeting?.length()
- Elvis operator: ?:
var currentCompany = user?.profile?.company ?: "Wizeline"
- Not null assertion : !! Operator
var length = nullableGreeting!!.length()
