The <code>isempty</code> function returns a boolean that indicates
if the argument variable is empty or not.  The general
syntax for its use is
<PRE>
  y = isempty(x).
</PRE>
<P>
<H3>Examples</H3>
Here are some examples of the <code>isempty</code> function
<PRE>
--&gt; a = []

a = 
  []
--&gt; isempty(a)

ans = 
 1 

--&gt; b = 1:3

b = 
 1 2 3 

--&gt; isempty(b)

ans = 
 0 
</PRE>
<P>
Note that if the variable is not defined, <code>isempty</code> 
does not return true.
<PRE>

--&gt; isempty(x)
