Finding empty directories

Question

I need to find empty directories for a given list of directories. Some directories have directories inside it.

If inside directories are also empty I can say main directory is empty otherwise it's not empty.

How can I test this?

For example:

A>A1(file1),A2 this is not empty beacuse of file1
B>B1(no file) this is empty
C>C1,C2 this is empty

Check whether find <dir> -type f outputs anything. Here's an example:

for dir in A B C; do
    [ -z "`find $dir -type f`" ] && echo "$dir is empty"
done
