Empty string is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.
Some languages have syntax or semantics for dealing specifically with empty strings.
The task is to:
- Demonstrate how to assign an empty string to a variable.
- Demonstrate how to check that a string is empty
- Demonstrate how to check that a string is not empty.
Java
String.isEmpty()
is part of Java 1.6. Other options for previous versions are noted.
<lang java5>String s = "";
if(s != null && s.isEmpty()){//optionally, instead of "s.isEmpty()": "s.length() == 0" or "s.equals("")"
System.out.println("s is empty");
}else{
System.out.println("s is not empty");
}</lang>
Python
<lang python>s = if not s:
print('String s is empty.')
if s:
print('String s is not empty.')</lang>
