Answer 1

For example I have a class Person: String name, int age ==>Constructor new Person(name,age)

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


public void main(String[] args){
    Person ibrahima=new Person("Timera",40);
    Person toto=new Person("Toto",35);
    Person alex=new Person("Alex",50);
    ArrayList myList=new ArrayList
    Collections.sort(myList, new Comparator() {
        @Override
        public int compare(Person p1, Person p2) {
            // return p1.age+"".compareTo(p2.age+""); //sort by age
            return p1.name.compareTo(p2.name); // if you want to short by name
        }
    });
    System.out.println(myList.toString());
    //[Person [name=Alex, age=50], Person [name=Timera, age=40], Person [name=Toto, age=35]]
    Collections.reverse(myList);
    System.out.println(myList.toString());
    //[Person [name=Toto, age=35], Person [name=Timera, age=40], Person [name=Alex, age=50]]

}
