earasing arrays

hi
is there any way to erase array elements having no values stored in it?
"if len(array(a,b))<=0 then erase"
will this work?
thanks

The code you show does not demonstrate that the array has no values in it,
it is just testing a particular element of the array.

Erase clears an array down, or as help puts it, Reinitializes the elements
of fixed-size arrays and releases dynamic-array storage space. But if the
array is empty, there is no need to clear it is there not?
