java中的compareTo()方法

package string_test;

import java.util.Arrays;

/*
当我们想排序一个自定义的数组，Java又没有直接提供它们的比较方式时。我们可以 通过实现接口Comparable并重写compareTo()方法来添加对自定义数组的比较，然后通过Arrays的sort（）方法来将这个数组排序。这样就可以快速完成你所需要的排序了。有些同学就要问了：为什么重写了compareTo()方法就可以通过Arrays.sort()来进行排序了，我们可以通过源码来解释：

Student{id=4, name='e', grade=12}
Student{id=1, name='b', grade=40}
Student{id=3, name='d', grade=55}
Student{id=0, name='a', grade=60}
Student{id=2, name='c', grade=80}

        Student s1 = new Student(1, "刘德华", 5);
