I have a string named ds and need to test only if it is null or not. Can I just do the following?

if (ds) { }

It passes a syntax check so I am wondering what conditions this would test as true.

what does the above code do?

    String.IsNullOrEmpty will check to see if the string is empty or null.

    if( !string.IsNullOrEmpty( ds)) { 
        // String is valid
    }
