To show: How to use the C++ empty() member function to to test whether the string is contains characters or not.

// the C++ empty() program example

#include <string>

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(void)

{

bool Var1, Var2;

string str1("Testing the empty()");

cout<<"str1 string object is: "<<str1<<endl;

Var1 = str1.empty();

// test the emptiness

cout<<"Operation: str1.empty()"<<endl;

if(Var1)

cout<<"str1 string object is empty."<<endl;

else

cout<<"str1 string object is not empty."<<"\n\n";

// an example of an empty string object

string str3;

Var2 = str3.empty();

cout<<"Operation: str3.empty()"<<endl;

// test the emptiness

if(Var2)

cout<<"str3 string object is empty."<<endl;

else

cout<<"str3 string object is not empty."<<endl;

return 0;

}

Output example:

str1 string object is: Testing the empty()

Operation: str1.empty()

str1 string object is not empty.

Operation: str3.empty()

str3 string object is empty.
