  Null character - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thenull character' (also null terminator) is a character with the value zero, present in the ASCII and Unicode character sets, and available in nearly all mainstream programming languages.
The character has special significance in C and its derivatives, where it serves as a reserved character used to signify the end of strings.
In null-terminated strings, the first occurring null character is interpreted as the end of the string.

 Hour 13 - Manipulating Strings
Because the compiler appends a null character to the array, the str2[i] expression is evaluated in the for statement.
When the null character is encountered, the str1[i] expression used as the condition of the for statement in line 15 returns logical FALSE, which in turn causes the loop to stop.
A string is a character array with a null character as the terminator at the last element.

 C string - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computing, C strings are character sequences stored as one-dimensional character arrays and terminated with a null character ("\0" or ASCII 0).
The name refers to the ubiquitous C programming language using this string representation, and is used elsewhere to distinguish this often-used representation from others.
If the null character is not put to the end of the string for some reason, any following non-related memory area is also processed as a part of the character sequence.

Characters are extracted and inserted until any of the following occurs: • end-of-file occurs on the input sequence • inserting in the output sequence fails • an exception occurs If the function stores no characters, it calls the basic_ios member function setstate(failbit), which may throw ios_base::failure.
Characters are extracted and inserted until any of the following occurs: • end-of-file occurs on the input sequence • inserting in the output sequence fails • the next available input character == delim.
Characters are extracted and stored until any of the following occurs: • n characters are stored • end-of-file occurs on the input sequence If the function does not store n characters, it calls the basic_ios member function setstate(failbit), which may throw ios_base::failure.

For example, character 10 represents the "line feed" function (which causes a printer to advance its paper), and character 27 represents the "escape" key found on the top left of common keyboards.
Though its function is similar to that of other control characters, this pattern was used so that it could be used to "erase" a section of paper tape, a popular storage medium until the 80's, by punching all possible holes at a particular character position.
Code 32 is the "space" character, denoting the space between words, which is produced by the large space bar of a keyboard.

 Definition of Null Character
A null character is a character with all its bits set to zero.
Therefore, it has a numeric value of zero and can be used to represent the end of a string of characters, such as a word or phrase.
In practical applications, such as database and spreadsheet programs, null characters are used as fillers for spaces.

If no such wide character is found, the current token extends to the end of the wide-character string pointed to by ws1, and subsequent searches in the same wide-character string for a token return a NULL pointer.
If such a wide character is found, it is overwritten by a null wide character, which terminates the current token.

 Chapter 9
The strcat() function copies characters starting from the address passed as its second argument up to and including the first NULL character it finds in the second string; it places them starting at the first NULL character after the address passed as the first argument.
If not, it stops at the first character that differs and returns a positive integer if the character in the second string argument at that point comes lexicographically after the character in the first string argument in the computer’s encoding system, and negative if it comes before.
The is_() functions test whether the character representation of an integer value, according to the implementation’s character encoding system, is of a certain classification specified by the function: a digit, a letter, a digit or letter, a hex digit, a lowercase letter, an uppercase letter, a white-space character, a control character, or a printing character.

 OpenVMS ask the wizard - C, null characters, and files?
Hello, I have a file in which There is Line Feed Character Line Feed (Ascii 10) followed by NULL Character (Ascii 0).
The OpenVMS Wizard expects this is a C programming question, as C designates the null character for special handling -- the null character is a string terminator in C. OpenVMS, RMS, and the file system -- as differentiated from C and the C run-time library -- do not particularly have special handling for the null.
C can deal with null characters quite nicely, though many of the C functions -- such as str* functions -- will terminate processing of any strings when the first null is reached.
