You cannot have a null exception in haskell.

Yes, I'm aware of that 1/0 returns an exception.

I'm saying that it makes sense to use nulls because 1/0 is an undefined operation. Therefore to represent the output of 1/0 with a null makes sense. So the existence of nulls makes sense. That is not haskell code I'm typing up there. "1/0 = undefined" is not code.

If you read my reply you will see that my statement isn't referring to an exception caused by 1/0. It's actually referring to a null exception which is completely different.

I am explicitly saying that the "null" in haskell is part of a sum type (the maybe monad) and in that case the "null" or nothing will be handled with no run time errors. You cannot have a null exception in haskell.

Never did I say Haskell has no runtime errors, and 1/0 is not an exception caused by a null. Please analyze and reread my statement.
