I need to sort an array of strings like the following, by a substring of characters:
[0] = "gtrd3455";
[1] = "wsft885";
[2] = "ltzy96545";
[3] = "scry5558";
[4] = "lopa475";
I need to sort by the following "3455, 885, 96545, 5558, 475"
I need to substring off the first 4 characters of the array, sort it and display back in an array like the output below.
The output should be an array like:
[0] = "ltzy96545";
[1] = "scry5558";
[2] = "gtrd3455";
[3] = "wsft885";
[4] = "lopa475";
Example of how I can do this in Java?

You can use a Comparator, and use Array#sort method with it, to sort it according to your need: -
String[] yourArray = new String[3];
yourArray[0] = "gtrd3455";
yourArray[1] = "ltzy96545";
yourArray[2] = "lopa475";
Arrays.sort(yourArray, new Comparator() {
public int compare(String str1, String str2) {
String substr1 = str1.substring(4);
String substr2 = str2.substring(4);
return Integer.valueOf(substr2).compareTo(Integer.valueOf(substr1));
}
});
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(yourArray));
OUTPUT: -
[ltzy96545, gtrd3455, lopa475]
