How to sort an ArrayList?

Question

I have a List of doubles in java and I want to sort ArrayList in descending order.

Input ArrayList is as below:

List testList = new Arr         


        

Answer 1

Here is a short cheatsheet that covers typical cases:

// sort
list.sort(naturalOrder())

// sort (reversed)
list.sort(reverseOrder())

// sort by field
list.sort(comparing(Type::getField))

// sort by field (reversed)
list.sort(comparing(Type::getField).reversed())

// sort by int field
list.sort(comparingInt(Type::getIntField))

// sort by double field (reversed)
list.sort(comparingDouble(Type::getDoubleField).reversed())

// sort by nullable field (nulls last)
list.sort(comparing(Type::getNullableField, nullsLast(naturalOrder())))

// two-level sort
list.sort(comparing(Type::getField1).thenComparing(Type::getField2))
