Class Sort

java.lang.Object

tech.tablesaw.sorting.Sort

All Implemented Interfaces:

Iterable<Map.Entry<String,Sort.Order>>

public class Sort
extends Object
implements Iterable<Map.Entry<String,Sort.Order>>

Provides fine-grained control over sorting.

Use:

table.sortOn(first("Year", DESCEND).next("State", ASCEND));

This sorts table on the column named year in descending order, such that the most recent years appear first, then on State, in ascending order so "AL" will appear before "CA". You can add additional instructions for multi-column sorts by chaining additional calls to next() with the appropriate column names and Order.
