     @breizh @Soblow If there's one I'd say it's not in C where you quite typically get:
     - negative number (as with most things returning a size, 0 being successfully doing nothing)
     - only errno being set, which isn't defined as thread-safe
     - NULL pointer
     - Nothing (rather prevalent in old POSIX fonctions, for example atoi)

     @Soblow Except in shell scripts, isn’t this the norm?
