From reading the Oracle docs regarding primitive default initialization, local variables (method variables) are not given a default value. Is that why:

for(int k; k<0; k++)

is incorrect? Is a for loop considered a method?

No, for loop is not considered a method. But the variable defined in a for loop is a local variable with scope limited to just the for loop body. So it is not given a default value.

Thank you for the clarification!
