  * In Java, naming conventions for identifiers have been established and suggested by various Java communities such as Sun Microsystem<ref>"Code Conventions for the Java Programming Language", [http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConventions.doc8.html Section 9: "Naming Conventions"]</ref>, Netscape<ref>"NETSCAPE'S SOFTWARE CODING STANDARDS GUIDE FOR JAVA",[http://collaboratory.emsl.pnl.gov/docs/collab/sam/CodeStandards.html Collab Software Coding Standards Guide for Java]</ref>, AmbySoft<ref>"AmbySoft Inc. Coding Standards for Java v17.01d", [http://www.ambysoft.com/essays/javaCodingStandards.html]</ref> and etc. A sample of naming conventions set by Sun Microsystem are listed below:
