Why returning NULL is bad?
This is a violation of DRY principle. Getting a null value is an ambiguous for caller, because it doesn’t say whether the null is returned due to the bug or due to the fact that the order was not found in the database. Returning null is definitely not a domain-driven design approach.
Can a map be null?

Why does mmap ( ) use map _ failed instead of null?
Address 0x0 is never usable, so it should never be returned upon success.

There are some rare situations where mmap () will actually create a mapping at address 0x0.
What happens when I turn iCloud back on for maps?
