Vector isEmpty() Method in Java

Last Updated : 14 Aug, 2018

The Java.util.Vector.isEmpty() method in Java is used to check and verify if a Vector is empty or not. It returns True if the Vector is empty else it returns False.

Syntax:

Vector.isEmpty()

Parameters: This method does not take any parameter.

Return Value: This function returns True if the Vectoris empty else it returns False.

Below programs illustrate the Java.util.Vector.isEmpty() method:

Program 1:

// Java code to illustrate isEmpty() 
import java.util.*; 
  
public class VectorDemo { 
    public static void main(String args[]) 
    { 
        // Creating an empty Vector 
        Vector<String> vec_tor = new Vector<String>(); 
  
        // Use add() method to add elements into the Vector 
        vec_tor.add("Welcome"); 
        vec_tor.add("To"); 
        vec_tor.add("Geeks"); 
        vec_tor.add("4"); 
        vec_tor.add("Geeks"); 
  
        // Displaying the Vector 
        System.out.println("Vector:  " + vec_tor); 
  
        // Verifying if the Vector is empty or not 
        System.out.println("Is the Vector empty? "
                           + vec_tor.isEmpty()); 
  
        // Clearing the Vector 
        vec_tor.clear(); 
  
        // Displaying the Vector 
        System.out.println("Vector after clear(): "
                           + vec_tor); 
  
        // Verifying if the Vector is empty or not 
        System.out.println("Is the Vector empty? "
                           + vec_tor.isEmpty()); 
    } 
} 

Output:

Vector:  [Welcome, To, Geeks, 4, Geeks]
Is the Vector empty? false
Vector after clear(): []
Is the Vector empty? true

Program 2:

// Java code to illustrate isEmpty() 
import java.util.*; 
  
public class VectorDemo { 
    public static void main(String args[]) 
    { 
        // Creating an empty Vector 
        Vector<Integer> vec_tor = new Vector<Integer>(); 
  
        // Displaying the Vector 
        System.out.println("Vector:  " + vec_tor); 
  
        // Verifying if the Vector is empty or not 
        System.out.println("Is the Vector empty? "
                           + vec_tor.isEmpty()); 
    } 
} 

Output:

Vector:  []
Is the Vector empty? true
