Sort list of string[] in java [closed]

Question

I have List<String[]>. I would like to have it sorted by name in String[3] in alphabetic order. How should my comparator look like for such case ?

Collections.sort(List, Comparator). Note that I don't post an answer since it's your duty try something and then asking about the problems you have, not asking people to do things for you. — Luiggi Mendoza

@Dukeling want to also give a cup of coffee and a cookie to OP while reading the answer he/she should have looked for? — Luiggi Mendoza

try

    Collections.sort(list, new Comparator<String[]>() {
        public int compare(String[] o1, String[] o2) {
            return o1[3].compareTo(o2[3]);
        }
    });

Oh, that is what the op was wanting... +1 from me. Still think the question was a dup though.

+1, what an elegant way of doing it.
