Handling Missing Info in .NET

Read Original

This article discusses strategies for handling potentially missing information in .NET applications. It covers C# 8.0's Nullable Reference Types feature, its benefits for code quality, and its limitations. It then contrasts this with F#'s Option type, explaining how its design within a strict type system forces developers to handle all data paths safely, reducing runtime exceptions. The piece serves as a technical comparison of null-safety approaches across .NET languages.
