... filter out undefined values ... [emphasis added]
My take is that keys with undefined values (either because non-existent or undef) are to be filtered out. One way:
c:\@Work\Perl\monks>perl -wMstrict -MData::Dump -le
"my %args = ('profile' => 'foo', 'xyzzy' => undef, 'status' => 0);
my %ta =
map { defined $args{$_} ? ($_ => $args{$_}) : () }
qw(profile password xyzzy status)
;
dd 'filtered', \%ta;
dd 'original', \%args;
"
("filtered", { profile => "foo", status => 0 })
("original", { profile => "foo", status => 0, xyzzy => undef })

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
