## Overview
The **`isEmpty`** property of a Dictionary instance allows us to see whether a dictionary is empty or not. An empty dictionary contains no key-value pairs.
## Syntax
```swift
dictionary.isEmpty
```
## Parameters
This function does not take any parameters.
## Return values
The value returned is a Boolean. If it is empty, a `true` is returned, otherwise a `false` is returned.
## Code example

// create dictionaries
var dict1 : [String: String] = [:]
var dict2 = [
  "name": "Theodore", 
  "role": "Developer"
]

// check if empty
print(type(of : dict1), dict1.isEmpty)
print(type(of : dict2), dict2.isEmpty)

## Code explanation
* **Lines 2 and 3**: We create two dictionaries, `dict1` and `dict2`.
* **Lines 9 and 10**: We check what type of instance the dictionaries are. If they're empty, we print the results returned.
