+In order to pass a `NULL` pointer to an external C function, the
+`#void` Scheme value can be used.
+
+As an example, the second argument to the `strtol` function can be
+`NULL`:
+
+```scheme
+(define-external strtol(:string :pointer :int)
+  :return-type :long)
+```
+
+```scheme
+(strtol "1001" #void 10) => 1001
+(strtol "1001" #void 2)  => 9
+```

 Functions on C pointers are described in the next section.
