# pandas.Series.empty

property Series.empty

  Indicator whether Index is empty.

  An Index is considered empty if it has no elements. This property can be useful for quickly checking the state of an Index, especially in data processing and analysis workflows where handling of empty datasets might be required.

  Returns:
    bool

      If Index is empty, return True, if not return False.

  See also

  `Index.size`

    Return the number of elements in the underlying data.

  Examples

      >>> idx = pd.Index([1, 2, 3])
      >>> idx
      Index([1, 2, 3], dtype='int64')
      >>> idx.empty
      False

      >>> idx_empty = pd.Index([])
      >>> idx_empty
      Index([], dtype='object')
      >>> idx_empty.empty
      True

  If we only have NaNs in our DataFrame, it is not considered empty!

      >>> idx = pd.Index([np.nan, np.nan])
      >>> idx
      Index([nan, nan], dtype='float64')
      >>> idx.empty
      False
