It's difficult to understand them from the code.

You mean both of them ask the following \command to take two mandatory 
arguments? I try this example:

==
\def\test
  {\dodoubleargument\dotest} % use \dodoubleempty

\def\dotest[#1][#2]
 {\iffirstargument
   First arg: #1
  \fi
  \ifsecondargument
   Second arg: #2
  \fi}

\test[ok][ok] % 1. this is ok

\test [ok] [] % 2. warning?

\test [wrong] % 3. Error: lack one arg
==

both 1 and 2 can print First arg and Second arg, so I am confused what's 
no argument is given

You need a comment sign at the end of the line.

\def\dotest[#1][#2]%

  {\iffirstargument
   First arg: #1
  \fi
  \ifsecondargument
   Second arg: #2
  \fi}

 \test[ok][ok] % 1. this is ok

 \test [ok] [] % 2. warning?

This is just a empty argument.

 \test [wrong] % 3. Error: lack one arg
 ==

 both 1 and 2 can print First arg and Second arg, so I am confused what's
 no argument is given

All my faults come from the last comment sign! :)

 You mean both of them ask the following \command to take two mandatory 
 arguments? I try this example:

we use optimized variants for #args =3 but the error messags still 
shows up for

\doquadrupleargument\relax

\doquadrupleargument\relax[1]

\doquadrupleargument\relax[1][2]


\doquadrupleempty\relax

\doquadrupleempty\relax[1]

\doquadrupleempty\relax[1][2]
