when you initialize with "" is the same as initializing with 0?

for example you wan to initialize hits and misses if you do it like hits = ""; is it the same thing if I did this hits = 0; ?????

0 is not a string, so I don't see how you can store it inside a String variable. hits is meant to be a String object. (It contains the letters the user guessed correctly)
