[EP-tech] Re: a lot of warnings concerning uninitialized value

[Field A.N.]

...or at the top of the function:

	return undef unless defined $row->[0];

I think this is slightly better as it defined an exception that's handled ahead of the function doing its thing.  If you don't like the unless operator:

	return undef if !defined $row->[0];
