Interface DoubleComparator

  • All Superinterfaces:
    java.util.Comparator<java.lang.Double>
    All Known Implementing Classes:
    AbstractDoubleComparator
    Functional Interface:
    This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

    @FunctionalInterface
    public interface DoubleComparator
    extends java.util.Comparator<java.lang.Double>
    A type-specific Comparator; provides methods to compare two primitive types both as objects and as primitive types.

    Note that fastutil provides a corresponding abstract class that can be used to implement this interface just by specifying the type-specific comparator.

      Modifier and Type Method Description
      int compare​(double k1, double k2)
      Compares its two primitive-type arguments for order.

      default DoubleComparator thenComparing​(DoubleComparator second)
      Return a new comparator that first uses this comparator, then uses the second comparator if this comparator compared the two elements as equal.

      • compare

        int compare​(double k1,
                    double k2)
        Compares its two primitive-type arguments for order. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as the first argument is less than, equal to, or greater than the second.
        Returns:
        a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as the first argument is less than, equal to, or greater than the second.
