The
sanitizeObject
function in prairielib usestypeof value === 'object'
as a way to check ifvalue
is an object, but this expression is also true fornull
. This has implications in grader hosts, whenever autograders include, in the results, a key that points tonull
. Instead of treating the object as null, this would trigger a parsing error on the results object. This PR fixes it by handling null values explicitly.
