By design. What else should it do?
Of course you can initialize your variables explicitly:
double pi = 3.0;
Only global/static variables are, local variables aren't.
The exact language syntax varies depending on the programming language that you are using, but below is a general C method: #include "stdafx.h" int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { return 0; } int main() { int x; int i; i=0; //Initializes i to 0 x=0; //Initializes to 0 while (x <= 10) //Defines while loop to be <=10 loops { i=i+x; x=x+2; } printf("The sum of even numbers from 0 to 10 (inclusive) is: %d\n",i); return 0; }
The equation of a line that passes through (0, 0) is y = x, where the two variables x and y have always the same values.
Some languages assign a default value as 0 to uninitialized variables. In many languages, however, uninitialized variables hold unpredictable values.
There doesn't exist such a thing. What does exist are standardized variables, which are variables with mean = 0 and standard deviation = 1
The number is 0
Variables that the program can use everywhere in the program. Example: int x = 5; int main(void) { x = 6; foo(); return 0; } void foo(void) { x = 5; }
A global variable is a variable that is declared at global scope, rather than file, namespace, function, class or nested scope. Global variables are usually declared with external linkage within a header and initialised in one (and only one) source file. Any file that includes the header (which includes the source file that initialised the global variable) then has unrestricted access to the variable. It is globally visible and any code can alter it. Global variables should be used sparingly and only when absolutely necessary. If the vast majority of the functions in your program require access to a particular variable, then a global variable makes perfect sense and is by far the simplest solution. However, a variable that is only used by a handful of functions can hardly be described as a global entity, thus it has no place within the global namespace and should be scoped to those functions that actually require it instead.
A polynomial of degree 0 is a polynomial without any variables, such as 9.
Java by default initializes it to the default value for that primitive type. Thus an int will be initialized to 0(zero), a Boolean will be initialized to false.
