N2 - Currently, a lot of universities are offering Java programming courses for teaching the first-step object-oriented programming language. For novice students, to master writing readable codes using proper names for variables, classes, and methods is crucial in Java programming, to improve understandability and maintainability. In this paper, we consider four naming rules to write a readable code and implement the naming rule checking function to check whether the given code follows them. For evaluations, we applied the proposal to 2, 908 source codes submitted in Java programming courses from students in Okayama University, Japan, Malang State Polytechnic, Indonesia, and Yamaguchi University, Japan. The results confirm the effectiveness of the proposal.
