title: Do object arrays in Java have default values?
body: <p>If I construct:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Object[][] guy = new Object[5][4];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>do the spots in my array have default values? Are they null?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to assign default values for every spot in the array?</p>
