How to sort an ArrayList?

Collections.sort(testList);
Collections.reverse(testList);

That will do what you want. Remember to import Collections though!

Here is the documentation for Collections.


Descending:

Collections.sort(mArrayList, new Comparator<CustomData>() {
    @Override
    public int compare(CustomData lhs, CustomData rhs) {
        // -1 - less than, 1 - greater than, 0 - equal, all inversed for descending
        return lhs.customInt > rhs.customInt ? -1 : (lhs.customInt < rhs.customInt) ? 1 : 0;
    }
});

For your example, this will do the magic in Java 8

List<Double> testList = new ArrayList();
testList.sort(Comparator.naturalOrder());

But if you want to sort by some of the fields of the object you are sorting, you can do it easily by:

testList.sort(Comparator.comparing(ClassName::getFieldName));

or

 testList.sort(Comparator.comparing(ClassName::getFieldName).reversed());

or

 testList.stream().sorted(Comparator.comparing(ClassName::getFieldName).reversed()).collect(Collectors.toList());
