this check is not in any of the specifications, and is a convenience feature that I added. The return value is negative, since the return value for printf is negative on errors. As for why it's -3, that's because -1 and -2 are used for file writing errors, and this allows me as the developer to tell what the error was.
I have now added a test to check that it returns an error value when passed a null pointer.
