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.
