* @date March 16, 2000.
* Interface for objects that specify an ordering between objects. The ordering
* can be <EM>total</EM>, such that two objects only compare equal if they are
* equal by the equals method, or <EM>partial</EM> such that this is not
* necessarily true. For example, a case-sensitive dictionary order comparison
* of Strings is total, but if it is case-insensitive it is partial, because
* "abc" and "ABC" compare as equal even though "abc".equals("ABC") returns
* false.
* <P>
* In general, Comparators should be Serializable, because when they are passed
* to Serializable data structures such as SortedMap or SortedSet, the entire
* data structure will only serialize correctly if the comparator is
* Serializable.
