    Default value of bool 's

    I declared a large array of bools...and wrote a loop to make all the values false.
    The compiler(gcc-4.6) shows a warning that "The statement has no effect"
    Is the default value of a boolean always && everywhere false ?

    No.
    That warning is generated when you do an operation but don't store the result.
    Devoted my life to programming...
