public final class HashComparator
extends Object
implements BinaryPredicate
HashComparator is a binary predicate that returns true if the hash code of its first operand is less than the hash code of its second operand. It is used as the default comparator by many algorithms and containers. It is especially useful for sorting numbers, as the hash code of the Number subclasses are equal to their primitive value.
