Nil is a word commonly used to mean not in list or zero; it is one of several names for the number 0.
Nil may also refer to:
Nil (stylized as nil) is a Japanese rock band that was formed in 1998 by Tetsu Takano (ex- Malice Mizer, ex-Mega8Ball, ex- Zigzo, The JuneJulyAugust), Hiroyuki Kashimoto and Kyoshi Moro. The original intent of Nil was to become Tetsu's solo unit and even though it has become a full fledged band, all lyrics and songwriting has been solely handled by Tetsu. The band only lasted briefly during its first incarnation and went on hiatus by the end of 1998. It would not resurface until the middle of 2002 when they would start recording again and Tetsu formed his own record label, Afro Skull Records. The name "Nil" literally means "absolute zero" and as an acronym refers to "native irreligious language".
In 2005, Nil had many setbacks which resulted in the departure of founding members Kashimoto and Moro who both left the band on January 10, 2005, the last day of the "Touring Inferno" tour. Eventually replacement drummer Furuton (ex- Oblivion Dust, ex-Mega8Ball support) left the band after only 6 months. By the end of 2005 Nil finally settled down with the addition of Masaru Kobayashi (ex-Soy Sauce Sonix, ex- Sads, The Cro-Magnons) on bass and Kazama Hiroyuki (ex-Fantastic Designs) on drums.
In the years since resuming activities, Nil has recorded and released 5 full albums, 7 mini albums, 1 cover album, 1 live album, 1 compilation album, 3 singles, 2 fan-club only CDs and 8 DVDs. Tetsu has claimed that Nil is his life's work and despite some bumps in the road he has showed no signs of slowing down with his music and the band Nil.
NIL was a 32-bit implementation of Lisp developed at MIT and intended to be the successor to Maclisp. NIL stood for "New Implementation of LISP", and was in part a response to DECs VAX computer. The project was headed by Jon L White, with a stated goal of maintaining compatibility with MacLisp whilst fixing many of the problems with the language.
Nil (Nameless Liberty Underground) (commonly known simply as Nil) is the second studio album released by Japanese rock band The Gazette. It was released on February 8, 2006 by PS Company in Japan. It was also the first album by The Gazette to be released in Europe on May 30, 2006 by CLJ Records.
Nil is a brand of cigarette which is sold in Austria, the Czech Republic and Germany produced by the Gallaher Group, a subsidiary of Japan Tobacco. Originally, it was a product of the Austrian "Tabakregie", now "Austria Tobacco". In Germany, it is one of the oldest brands that are still on the market. The cigarettes of the brand Nil were produced since 1901 as cigarettes of the oriental type. They were very popular, explicitly in the actor-scene. Until the end of the twenties, they have contained, like most oriental-type-cigarettes, cannabis (8%).
In addition to the classical, non-filter Nil with a characteristic oval form, in 1957 a version of this cigarette with filter was introduced, which was available until 1976. Since 1998, the brand has been positioned in a new way and strongly advertised again. In addition to the reintroduced filter-cigarette, a light-brand and rolling-tobacco were introduced.
