It is. Its representation isn't guaranteed to be all-bits-zero,
C guarantees that.
C guarantees what? If you're disagreeing with Jason -- he's right.

He said the null _pointer_ isn't guaranteed to be all-bits zero. And it
isn't. Read the standard or the faq.
but the constant value 0 when used in pointer context is always a
null pointer (and in fact the standard requires that NULL be
#defined as 0 or a cast thereof).
