这招对我很管用:

package doublearraysort;

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Collections;

public class Gpa {


    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // initializing unsorted double array
        Double[] dArr = new Double[] {                 
            new Double(3.2),
            new Double(1.2),
            new Double(4.7),
            new Double(3.3),
            new Double(4.6),
           };
        // print all the elements available in list
        for (double number : dArr) {
            System.out.println("GPA = " + number);
        }

        // sorting the array
        Arrays.sort(dArr, Collections.reverseOrder());

        // print all the elements available in list again
        System.out.println("The sorted GPA Scores are:");
        for (double number : dArr) {
            System.out.println("GPA = " + number);
        }
    }
}

输出:

GPA = 3.2
GPA = 1.2
GPA = 4.7
GPA = 3.3
GPA = 4.6
The sorted GPA Scores are:
GPA = 4.7
GPA = 4.6
GPA = 3.3
GPA = 3.2
GPA = 1.2

对于列表

Collections.sort(list, Collections.reverseOrder());

对于数组

Arrays.sort(array, Collections.reverseOrder());

这是我如何排序一个基本类型int数组。

int[] intArr = new int[] {9,4,1,7};
Arrays.sort(nums);
Collections.reverse(Arrays.asList(nums));

结果:

[1, 4, 7, 9]

有时我们练习一个例子是很好的，这里有一个完整的例子:

sortdesc.java

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Collections;
class sortdesc{
public static void main(String[] args){
       // int Array
       Integer[] intArray=new Integer[]{
                 new Integer(15),
                 new Integer(9),
                 new Integer(16),
                 new Integer(2),
                 new Integer(30)};

       // Sorting int Array in descending order
       Arrays.sort(intArray,Collections.reverseOrder());

       // Displaying elements of int Array
       System.out.println("Int Array Elements in reverse order:");
       for(int i=0;i<intArray.length;i++)
          System.out.println(intArray[i]);

       // String Array
       String[] stringArray=new String[]{"FF","PP","AA","OO","DD"};

       // Sorting String Array in descending order
       Arrays.sort(stringArray,Collections.reverseOrder());

       // Displaying elements of String Array
       System.out.println("String Array Elements in reverse order:");
       for(int i=0;i<stringArray.length;i++)
          System.out.println(stringArray[i]);}}

编译…

javac sortdec.java

叫它……

java sortdesc

输出

Int Array Elements in reverse order:
30
16
15
9
2
String Array Elements in reverse order:
PP
OO
FF
DD
AA

如果你想尝试字母数字数组…

//replace this line:
String[] stringArray=new String[]{"FF","PP","AA","OO","DD"};

//with this:
String[] stringArray=new String[]{"10FF","20AA","50AA"};

你会得到如下输出:

50AA
20AA
10FF

源

你可以用这个:

    Arrays.sort(data, Collections.reverseOrder());

Collections.reverseOrder()返回一个使用逆自然顺序的比较器。你可以使用Collections.reverseOrder(myComparator)来获得你自己的比较器的反向版本。

对于按降序排序的2D数组，只需翻转参数的位置

int[][] array= {
    {1, 5},
    {13, 1},
    {12, 100},
    {12, 85} 
};
Arrays.sort(array, (a, b) -> Integer.compare(a[1], b[1])); // for ascending order
Arrays.sort(array, (b, a) -> Integer.compare(a[1], b[1])); // for descending order

降序输出

12, 100
12, 85
1, 5
13, 1
