Interface IntComparator

All Superinterfaces:
Comparator<Integer>
All Known Implementing Classes:
IntComparators.NaturalImplicitComparator, IntComparators.OppositeComparator, IntComparators.OppositeImplicitComparator, IntComparators.UnsignedComparator, IntComparators.UnsignedOppositeComparator
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 IntComparator extends Comparator<Integer>
A type-specific Comparator; provides methods to compare two primitive types both as objects and as primitive types.

    • compare

      int compare(int k1, int 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.

    • thenComparing

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