It’s not always necessary to assign a
value when a field is declared. Fields
that are declared but not initialized
will be set to a reasonable default by
the compiler. Generally speaking, this
default will be zero or null,
depending on the data type. Relying on
such default values, however, is
generally considered bad programming
style.
The following chart summarizes the
default values for the above data
types.
Data Type Default Value (for fields)
byte 0
short 0
int 0
long 0L
float 0.0f
double 0.0d
char '\u0000'
boolean false
String (or any object) null
Local variables are slightly different; the compiler never assigns a default value to an uninitialized local variable. If you cannot initialize your local variable where it is declared, make sure to assign it a value before you attempt to use it. Accessing an uninitialized local variable will result in a compile-time error.
