+
+This function is similar to a coalesce function in SQL in that it will return
+the first value in a list of values that is not undefined or an empty string
+(two things in Puppet that will return a boolean false value). Typically,
+this function is used to check for a value in the Puppet Dashboard/Enterprise
+Console, and failover to a default value like the following:
+
+  $real_jenkins_version = pick($::jenkins_version, '1.449')
+
+The value of $real_jenkins_version will first look for a top-scope variable
+called 'jenkins_version' (note that parameters set in the Puppet Dashboard/
+Enterprise Console are brought into Puppet as top-scope variables), and,
+failing that, will use a default value of 1.449.
