You are probably on the right track. The problem description isn't a description but a title and a some Perl code. The most useful thing to do is what you have done, to interpret it in a context that makes sense for the language and make a useful example of how to solve an actual problem.

An even better example than the mapping example is a function with optional arguments, I just realized;
// return b if b is defined (was supplied by the caller), else c int foo(int c, int|void b) { return zero_type(b) ? c : b; }
Where does one find the assignment descriptions?
