Empty output represents zero
Unless the challenge specifies that an output of zero must be represented as 0, an answer may give empty output for inputs that expect an output of zero.
Note that this must be an output that is empty (such as an empty array or an empty string) rather than giving no output.
The type of the empty output need not be the same as the type of the other outputs, unless the challenge specifies this.
