## Usage
38+
39+
```javascript
40+
var nulls = require( '@stdlib/array/nulls' );
41+
```
42+
43+
#### nulls( length\[, dtype] )
44+
45+
Creates an array filled with nulls and having a specified length.
46+
47+
```javascript
48+
var arr = nulls( 2 );
49+
// returns [ null, null ]
50+
```
51+
52+
The function recognizes the following data types:
53+
54+
- `generic`: generic JavaScript values.
55+
56+
By default, the output array data type is `'generic'`. To specify an alternative data type, provide a `dtype` argument.
57+
58+
```javascript
59+
var arr = nulls( 2, 'generic' );
60+
// returns [ null, null ]
61+
```
