Dave Gauer 077a779f3d Change default elephant tail to null (#25)
It was confusing to see

    tail... = undefined

in the struct definition and then

    if (tail == null)

later in the exercise - it appears that the mismatch would be the issue
- but that's distracting from the real issue: making the value optional!

Changing the initial value to null is still correct, but won't distract.

The only worry now is that the user will remember the undefined
definition from the previous exercise and wonder if that has to be that
way...but you can't win them all!

No Peeking! :-)

Welcome to the ziglings/patches directory. This is how ziglings is tested.

The patches fix the broken exercises so that they work again, which means the answers are here, so no peeking!

Éowyn

A Bash shell script named eowyn.sh dwells here. She heals the little broken programs and places them in a healed directory, which is NOT committed to the repo.

$ ./eowyn.sh

(If you invoke her from elsewhere, she'll come here to ply her trade.)

The build.zig build script at the heart of Ziglings has a top-secret option which tells it to test from the patches/healed/ dir rather than exercises/:

$ zig build -Dhealed [step]

Éowyn tests all healed programs using this secret option.

Gollum

Another Bash shell script named gollum.sh may also be found. He snatches the original answers and stows them in his secret answers stash. If you leave him alone, he'll leave you alone.
