Java Example - Collection Comparison

Java Examples

The following example converts strings to a set and uses the Collection class's Collection.min() and Collection.max() methods to compare elements in the collection:

Main.java File

import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.TreeSet;

class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String[] coins = {"Penny", "nickel", "dime", "Quarter", "dollar"};
        Set<String> set = new TreeSet<String>();
        for (int i = 0; i < coins.length; i++) {
            set.add(coins);
        }
        System.out.println(Collections.min(set));
        System.out.println(Collections.min(set, String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER));
        for (int i = 0; i <= 10; i++) {
            System.out.print("-");
        }
        System.out.println("");
        System.out.println(Collections.max(set));
        System.out.println(Collections.max(set, String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER));
    }
}

The output of the above code is:
