✿ Default (computer science)


default, in computer science, refers to a setting or value automatically assigned to a software applicationcomputer program or device, outside of user intervention. Such settings are also calledpresets, especially for electronic devices. The Oxford English Dictionary dates this usage to the mid-1960s, as a variant of the older meaning of "failure in performance".
Default values are generally intended to make a device (or control) usable "out of the box". A common setting, or at least a usable setting, is typically assigned.
