c - argv[argc] ==?

Question

My professor and a couple of students are arguing about whether argv is null terminated or not. My friend wrote a small program and it printed out null but another kid said that he is probably simply reading into blank memory. Can someone solve this discussion?

Answer 1

From the Standard:

5.1.2.2.1 Program startup
...
-- argv[argc] shall be a null pointer.

So, yes; argv is null terminated
