Initialization of default value

Question

Hi friends, I want to know that how to initialize a default value when you know it's data type? Please give an example how to do that?

Notice also that all types have a default value. Briefly, this is: zero in the case of numbers and enums false in the case of bool '\0' in the case of char the value found by setting all bytes to zero in the case of other structs null for all reference types including string In general it can be found using the expression default(T) where T is the type. If this default value happens to coincide with what you want the field's initial value to be, then there's no need to specify it. For example: private string strVariable; // null by default private bool bVariable; // false by default private int intVariable; // 0 by default private DateTime someDate; // 00:00:00.0000000, January 1, 0001 by default However, you can do so if you want in the interests of clarity.
