Laravel check if collection is empty

Question

I\'ve got this in my Laravel webapp:

@foreach($mentors as $mentor)
    @foreach($mentor->intern as $intern)
        

        

Answer 1

This is the fastest way:

if ($coll->isEmpty()) {...}

Other solutions like count do a bit more than you need which costs slightly more time.

Plus, the isEmpty() name quite precisely describes what you want to check there so your code will be more readable.
