How do I set multiple int's equal to the same number ? Java

Question

I have the code int index, r, g, b; and I want to set all of them equal to a certain number, I don't individually want to write index = 0; r = 0;... and so on.

How do I do this in java? index,r,g,b = 0; doesn't work for me.

Do it that way anyway. Chained assignment has all sorts of pitfalls, and initializing each variable separately is much cleaner. — chrylis -cautiouslyoptimistic-, Oct 18 '13 at 05:35
I agree with @chrylis. If you don't want to do something one way, you should have a good explanation why not, instead of just "I'm too lazy to type out some characters". — Kayaman, Oct 18 '13 at 05:39

use this line of code for initializing all the variables at once

r = g = b = index = 0;

or else initialize when you declare like:

int index=0, r=0, g=0, b=0;

Initialize all the values, then set the values.

int index, r, g, b;
index = r = g = b = 0;
