Learn English – the antonym for “default”

antonyms

What is the antonym for "default" (computer science). For example there is "default value", how to say "not default"? Is there a one word for "not default" :)?

Best Answer

I know a bit of programming. And, it's surprising (I confirmed it with a profound programmer) that an opposite word to default value (strictly in computer science) is

defined

Some programming languages take default values unless you define them. The moment you define them, they are overwritten.

So, I think in your context, not default is defined.

Other good alternatives, as said by Damkerng are customized, user-defined, specific.
