I don't know about you, but I like this idea implemented in Java 7 and later.
http://jasdhir.blogspot.co.uk/2016/11/using-underscores-in-literals.html I always find it hard to read long numeric literals. Alternatively, without needing compiler changes, the IDE's and programmer editors should become more clever in how they display source code (think Elastic Tabstops), and automatically display numeric literals with slight increase in [render] spacing between certain number groups. Binary literals could be grouped every eight digits, whereas Hex could be grouped every 4 and Decimals every 3 digits. The age old rule of programmer source code always being in a mono-spaced font is ridiculous for this day and age.
