%description
Moose classes (and some other classes) distinguish between an attribute
being unset and the attribute being set to undef. Supplying a constructor
arguments like this:

my $bob = Person->new(
    name => $name,
    age => $age,
 );

Will result in the 'name' and 'age' attributes possibly being set to undef
(if the corresponding '$name' and '$age' variables are not defined), which
may violate the Person class' type constraints.

(Note: if you are the _author_ of the class in question, you can solve this
using the MooseX::UndefTolerant manpage. However, some of us are stuck
using non-UndefTolerant classes written by third parties.)

To ensure that the Person constructor does not try to set a name or age at
all when they are undefined, ugly looking code like this is often used:

my $bob = Person->new(
    defined $name ? (name => $name) : (),
    defined $age ? (age => $age) : (),
 );

or:

my $bob = Person->new(
    (name => $name) x!!(defined $name),
    (age  => $age)  x!!(defined $age),
 );

A slightly more elegant solution is the 'maybe' function.
