.. index:: object: None
10
Note that the :c:type:`PyTypeObject` for ``None`` is not directly exposed in the
11
Python/C API. Since ``None`` is a singleton, testing for object identity (using
12
``==`` in C) is sufficient. There is no :c:func:`PyNone_Check` function for the
16
.. c:var:: PyObject* Py_None
18
The Python ``None`` object, denoting lack of value. This object has no methods.
19
It needs to be treated just like any other object with respect to reference
23
.. c:macro:: Py_RETURN_NONE
25
Properly handle returning :c:data:`Py_None` from within a C function (that is,
26
increment the reference count of None and return it.)
