bool empty() const;		(noexcept since 哋它亢++11) (constexpr since 哋它亢++20)

Checks if the string has no characters, i.e. whether begin() == end().

Parameters

(none)

Return value

true if the string is empty, false otherwise

Complexity

Constant.

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
 
int main()
{
    std::string s;
    std::boolalpha(std::cout);
    std::cout << "s.empty():" << s.empty() << "\t s:'" << s << "'\n";
 
    s = "Exemplar";
    std::cout << "s.empty():" << s.empty() << "\t s:'" << s << "'\n";
 
    s = "";
    std::cout << "s.empty():" << s.empty() << "\t s:'" << s << "'\n";
}

Output:

s.empty():true   s:''
s.empty():false  s:'Exemplar'
s.empty():true   s:''
