Question

Edit the Person.java file so that the natural ordering or a Person is by last name in ascending order.

Use the merge sort algorithm to implement the MergeSort sort method.

 

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.List;

 

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        List<Person> people = new ArrayList<>();

 

        people.add(new Person("Frank", "Denton", 73));

        people.add(new Person("Mark", "Cohen", 44));

        people.add(new Person("Tim", "Smith", 22));

        people.add(new Person("Steve", "Denton", 16));

        people.add(new Person("Andy", "Ashton", 44));

        people.add(new Person("Albert", "Denton", 58));

        System.out.println("Before: " + people);

 

        List<Person> result = MergeSort.sort(people);

        System.out.println("After: " + result);

    }

}

 

import java.util.Collections;

import java.util.List;

 

public class MergeSort {

    public static List<Person> sort(List<Person> people) {

 

    }

}

 

public class Person {

    private String firstName;

    private String lastName;

    private int age;

 

    Person(String firstName, String lastName, int age) {

        this.firstName = firstName;

        this.lastName = lastName;

        this.age = age;

    }

 

    @Override

    public String toString() {

        return lastName + ", " + firstName + " " + age;

    }

}
