 Q1. What are the conventions regarding constant variables or static final variables ?Core Java
Ans. They should be named all in upper case with underscore separating words.

Moreover the name should be such that it identifies the value. For example, if we are using constant for employee Id 123, it should be named something like EMPLOYEE_ID_123 and not EMPLOYEE_ID
