Your suggestion would encourage the implementation detail of how the state is represented within the class to be made public. Using one level of indirection - properties - allows you to separate out the public API of a type from its... more 4/24/2014 5:51:56 AM

But isn't false the default value of bool[ean]s? For fields (instance variables and static variables), yes. But local variables don't have default values, regardless of their type. They have to be definitely assigned before they're... more 4/23/2014 4:35:34 PM
