Java中Comparable和Comparator接口

区别比较

Comparable	Comparator
排序接口	比较器接口
该类支持排序，如果类的对象是List列表（或数组），可以通过Collection.sort（或Array.sort）进行排序	该类本身不支持排序（没有实现Comparable的接口），需要建立一个该类的比较器，这个比较器实现Comparator接口
相当于内部比较器	相当于外部比较器
仅包含一个函数：x.compareTo(y)	仅包含两个函数：compareTo(x,y);【equals(Object obj);（可以不实现）】

Comparable

public class Person implements Comparable<Person> {
	int age;
	String name;
	double score;
	Person(int age, String name,double score) {
		this.age = age;
		this.name = name;
		this.score=score;
	}
	@Override
	public int compareTo(Person person) {//排序
		int flag1=this.age-person.age;
		if(flag1!=0) {//先根据年龄进行排序
			return flag1;
		}else {
			int flag2=this.name.compareTo(person.name);//再根据姓名
			if(flag2!=0) {
				return flag2;
			}else {
				return (int)(this.score-person.score);//最后根据分数
			}
		}
	}
	@Override
	public String toString() {
		return "Person [age=" + age + ", name=" + name + ", score=" + score + "]";
	}


}

public class Test {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
			ArrayList<Person> p = new ArrayList<Person>();
			p.add(new Person(20, "aaa",60));
			p.add(new Person(17, "ccc",100));
			p.add(new Person(17, "ccc",30));
			p.add(new Person(17, "ddd",80));
			p.add(new Person(21, "eee",90));
			p.add(new Person(30, "fff",90));
			System.out.println(p);
	    /* [Person [age=20, name=aaa, score=60.0],  //输出本身不换行，考虑到视觉效果，在此进行换行
			Person [age=17, name=ccc, score=100.0],  
			Person [age=17, name=ccc, score=30.0], 
			Person [age=17, name=ddd, score=80.0], 
			Person [age=21, name=eee, score=90.0], 
			Person [age=30, name=fff, score=90.0]]   */
			
			System.out.println("根据年龄、姓名、成绩排序后：");
			Collections.sort(p);//对象为AarrayList，因此可以用Collections进行排序
			System.out.println(p);
		/*	根据年龄、姓名、成绩排序后：
           [Person [age=17, name=ccc, score=30.0],
            Person [age=17, name=ccc, score=100.0],
            Person [age=17, name=ddd, score=80.0],
            Person [age=20, name=aaa, score=60.0],
            Person [age=21, name=eee, score=90.0],
            Person [age=30, name=fff, score=90.0]]   */
	}
}	

Comparator

• 新建一个类

public class Teacher {
	String name;
	int age;
	Teacher(String name, int age) {
		this.name = name;
		this.age = age;
	}
	@Override
	public String toString() {
		return "Teacher [name=" + name + ", age=" + age + "]";
	}
}

• 创建该类的比较器

public class AgeComparator implements Comparator<Teacher> {
	@Override
	public int compare(Teacher teacher1, Teacher teacher2) {//比较器定义
		return teacher1.age-teacher2.age;
	}
}

public class Test {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
			ArrayList<Teacher> p = new ArrayList<Teacher>();
			p.add(new Teacher("zzz",22));
			p.add(new Teacher("bbb",66));
			p.add(new Teacher("ccc",33));
			p.add(new Teacher("ddd",55));
			p.add(new Teacher("eee",44));
			System.out.println(p);
		/*  [Teacher [name=zzz, age=22], 
		     Teacher [name=bbb, age=66], 
		     Teacher [name=ccc, age=33],
		     Teacher [name=ddd, age=55], 
		     Teacher [name=eee, age=44]]  */
		     
			Collections.sort(p,new AgeComparator());//用比较器进行排序
			System.out.println("根据年龄排序后：");
			System.out.println(p);
			/*根据年龄排序后：
               [Teacher [name=zzz, age=22], 
                Teacher [name=ccc, age=33], 
                Teacher [name=eee, age=44], 
                Teacher [name=ddd, age=55], 
                Teacher [name=bbb, age=66]] */
	}
}
