This function returns `true` if the worker's process has terminated (either
because of exiting or being signaled). Otherwise, it returns `false`.

```js
const cluster = require('cluster');
const http = require('http');
const numCPUs = require('os').cpus().length;

if (cluster.isMaster) {
console.log(`Master ${process.pid} is running`);

// Fork workers.
for (let i = 0; i < numCPUs; i++) {
cluster.fork();
}

cluster.on('fork', (worker) => {
console.log('worker is dead?:', worker.isDead());
});

cluster.on('exit', (worker, code, signal) => {
console.log('worker is dead?:', worker.isDead());
});

} else {
// Workers can share any TCP connection
// In this case it is an HTTP server
http.createServer((req, res) => {
res.writeHead(200);
res.end(`Current process\n ${process.pid}`);
process.kill(process.pid);
}).listen(8000);

// Connect to http://localhost:8000 to check isDead().
}
```
