### `Rx.Observable.prototype.defaultIfEmpty([defaultValue])`
[Ⓢ](https://github.com/Reactive-Extensions/RxJS/blob/master/src/core/linq/observable/defaultifempty.js "View in source")
 
Returns the elements of the specified sequence or the specified value in a singleton sequence if the sequence is empty.
 
#### Arguments
1. `[defaultValue=null]` *(`Any`)*: The value to return if the sequence is empty. If not provided, this defaults to null.
 
#### Returns
*(`Observable`)*: An observable sequence that contains the specified default value if the source is empty; otherwise, the elements of the source itself.
 
#### Example
```js
/* Without a default value */
var source = Rx.Observable.empty().defaultIfEmpty();
 
var subscription = source.subscribe(
    function (x) {
        console.log('Next: ' + x.toString());
    },
    function (err) {
        console.log('Error: ' + err);
    },
    function () {
        console.log('Completed');
    });
 
// => Next: null
// => Completed
 
/* With a defaultValue */
var source = Rx.Observable.empty().defaultIfEmpty(false);
 
var subscription = source.subscribe(
    function (x) {
        console.log('Next: ' + x.toString());
    },
    function (err) {
        console.log('Error: ' + err);
    },
    function () {
        console.log('Completed');
    });
 
// => Next: false
// => Completed
```
