When working with databases, a result set is a set of rows that is returned by a query. An empty result set is a result set that contains no rows. There are a few ways to check if a result set is empty.
One way to check if a result set is empty is to use the ResultSet.next() method. This method returns a boolean value that indicates whether there is another row in the result set. If the ResultSet.next() method returns false, then the result set is empty.
