Explanation

In the above program, we created a module Module1 that contains the Main() function. The Main() function is the entry point for the program.

In the Main() function, we created two strings str1 and str2. Here, we check the emptiness of strings using the IsNullorEmpty() method of the String class and then printed the appropriate message on the console screen.
