Compiler never assigns a default value to a local variable. Unassigned local variables will result in compile time error.

No default value for a local variable.It will give u compilation error when u try to pass that variable as argument to System.out.println statement.

JAVA does not give Default value for local variables. You must give value to local variable before u going to use it otherwise it will give error.

JVM never assigns any default value to local or method variables. You have to initialise these variables before using them. Any attempt to use these variables without initialising them will result in compilation error.
However, JVM initialises the instance aur class level variables with their defaul values.

In case of uninitialised objects a null value is assigned to the reference of the object. Accessing this uninitialised objects will result in NullPointerException.
