Dumping null
~~~~~~~~~~~~

``null`` values will be represented with ``null`` by default::

$dumped = Yaml::dump(array('foo' => null));
// foo: null

You can represent them with ``~`` by using the ``DUMP_NULL_AS_TILDE`` flag::

$dumped = Yaml::dump(array('foo' => null), 2, 4, Yaml::DUMP_NULL_AS_TILDE);
// foo: ~

.. versionadded:: 4.4

The flag to dump ``null`` as ``~`` was introduced in Symfony 4.4.
