NULL: 定义为0或0L或(void *)0，用于指示一个指针值是空，即什么都不指；

'/0': 用且只用字符串结束符;

NUL : 0x00,0值字符，可以用于结束ASCII字符串，和'/0'类似，但是在c/c++中没有定义，如果要使用的话，需要自定义为 #define NUL '/0';

EOF ：通常定义为-1, 文件结束符标志，一般是ctrl+z.

NULL is a macro defined in several standard headers, 0 is an integer constant, '/0' is a character constant, and nul is the name of the character constant. All of these are *not* interchangeable:

NULL is to be used for pointers only since it may be defined as ((void *)0), this would cause problems with anything but pointers.

0 can be used anywhere, it is the generic symbol for each type's zero value and the compiler will sort things out.

'/0' should be used only in a character context.

nul is not defined in C or C++, it shouldn't be used unless you define it yourself in a suitable manner, like:

#define nul '/0'
