Nit: You could save some precious vertical screen real-estate by using
one-line /* comment style */.

The comment says exactly what the code already says, thus it adds no
value. A better comment would explain _why_ type is set to 0 under
these conditions.

Nit: Save precious vertical screen real-estate with one-line /*
comment style */.
