in reply to Re^2: Assigning Null to a variable
in thread Assigning Null to a variable

"I know what the value is, and the value is: that it is known that it has no value at all" is actually a pretty good explanation of our friend undef!

... and that's why DBI maps SQL's NULL to undef and vice versa.
