    I enjoy this:

    return a.or(b);

    But yeah, that requires an Option type rather than null pointers…

      Is that Rust? Assuming a is an Option (which would be close approximation of OP’s nullable type) and assuming b is not null, then this would be closer to the original idea:

      a.unwrap_or(b)

      It returns value of a if it’s not None rather than Option.
