E = datetime.empty () returns a $0\times 0$ empty datetime array. datetime.empty (m, n, …) or datetime.empty (sz) returns an empty datetime array of the requested size, which must have at least one dimension equal to zero. A lone dimension gives a square size, so datetime.empty (3) is an error while datetime.empty (0) is $0\times 0$. As for zeros, a negative dimension counts as zero, and a size vector with nothing in it names no size and gives $0\times 0$.
