Pandas is a special tool that allows us to perform complex manipulations of data effectively and efficiently. Inside pandas, we mostly deal with a dataset in the form of DataFrame. DataFrames are 2-dimensional data structures in pandas. DataFrames consists of rows, columns, and the data. A certain operation can be performed on DataFrames.

In pandas, we can check if a DataFrame is empty or not by using the following syntax:

Syntax:

DataFrame.empty()

By using the above syntax, we will get a Boolean value i.e., True if the DataFrame is empty and False if a DataFrame is not empty.

To work with Python Pandas, we need to import the pandas library. Below is the syntax,

import pandas as pd
