When a variable is assigned an ``++undefined++`` or ``++null++`` value, it has no properties. Trying to access properties of such a variable anyway results in a ``++TypeError++``, causing abrupt termination of the script if the error is not caught in a ``++catch++`` block. But instead of ``++catch++``-ing this condition, it is best to avoid it altogether.
