6.3.8 Status functions

bool is_empty() const; 
bool is_whole() const; 
bool is_singleton() const; 
bool is_okay() const;

These functions return the status of the current interval k , is properly k ∈RC  .

is_empty()


Whether the interval is empty i.e. ℜi,ℑi̸= ∅  .

is_whole()


Whether the interval spans the whole complex space (ℜi,ℑi̸= ∅)∧(|ℜi,ℜi,ℑi,ℑi| = ∞)
            ---  --  .

is_singleton()


Whether the interval refers to a single complex number. (ℜi,ℑi̸=∅) ∧(ℜi= ℜi)∧(ℑi=ℑi)
            ---      --  .

is_okay()


Whether the interval is properly defined.
