 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
 
 The `hashkit_create` function initializes a hashkit object for use. If you pass
-a NULL argument for hash, then the memory for the object is allocated. If you
+a nullptr argument for hash, then the memory for the object is allocated. If you
 specify a pre-allocated piece of memory, that is initialized for use.
 
 The `hashkit_clone` function initializes a hashkit object much like
