in thread zero vs. empty

Something is true if the value meets Perl's definition of true.(i.e., anything that isn't zero or the empty string)

undef is false too.

    Well, yes, but that's just an extension of what I said, since any undefined value always evaluates either to zero or the null string. So speaketh the Camel, 3rd ed., pg. 30. :-D
