We learned all about interfaces in our earlier tutorials. An interface is used to declare abstract methods and static or final variables. By default, interface methods are public. Since Java 8, interfaces can also have static and default methods defined in them. Java provides various built-in i...
默认方法(Default Methods):Java 8在接口中引入了默认方法,这些方法可以在接口中直接实现,默认方法为接口提供了一种向后兼容的方式。Comparator接口中定义了几个默认方法,例如thenComparingInt()、thenComparingLong()、thenComparingDouble()等。 静态方法(Static Methods):Java 8还引入了接口中的静态方法,这些方法可以直接...
1. When to Use Comparator Interface JavaComparatorinterface imposes atotal orderingon the objects which may not have a desired natural ordering. For example, for aListofEmployeeobjects, the natural order may be ordered by employee’s id. But in real-life applications, we may want to sort the...

Comparator interface in Java is used to order the object in your own way. It gives you ability to decide how element are stored within sorted collection and map
Using Comparator interface we can order the objects of user-defined class easily. Comparator interface is present in the java.util package Comparator class has two methods: We can sort the elements of an ArrayList by using the sort function but when it’s about sorting the elements based ...

We need to implement the java.lang.Comparable interface in the class to use it and compare it with the instances. This interface has a single method called compareTo(object), which should be in line with the other methods of the object. This function also defines the natural order of the...
