Yes, type "int" instance variables are initialized to '0' by default.

if i and j are in static method,

They will be local variables and will not be initialized by default. If you do not specifically initialize them, you will get a message from the compiler.

or they themsleves are static var,what is the circumstances of their initialization??

They will be initialized to '0' by default.

I suggest you write a short program to test the initialization of other types of variables like char and double and Object.
