Python’s built-in len() function can be used to determine whether or not a list is empty. If the length of the list is 0, it means that the list contains no elements.
my_list = []
if len(my_list) == 0:
print("The list is empty!")
else:
print("The list has elements.")
If you run this code, “The list is empty!” will be printed because my_list is an empty list.
This method can be useful in various contexts such as checking if a user input is empty (like when prompting for a username), if there are no items to display on a website, and so forth.
