There are few programming languages that let the programmer
say that he wishes the null program to really be the null
program. Ada has null, Python has pass. In other languages,
the no-op needs to be either emulated or is implicit.
I do not know (yet) why a no-op in the language is a must
in a theory-friendly programming language, I have seen that
it is. Ada has it, in any case.
