Uses of Interface
java.lang.Comparable

Packages that use Comparable
java.io Provides for system input and output through data streams, serialization and the file system. 
java.lang Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of the Java programming language. 
java.math Provides classes for performing arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic (BigInteger) and arbitrary-precision decimal arithmetic (BigDecimal). 
java.net Provides the classes for implementing networking applications. 
java.nio Defines buffers, which are containers for data, and provides an overview of the other NIO packages. 
java.nio.charset Defines charsets, decoders, and encoders, for translating between bytes and Unicode characters. 
java.sql Provides the API for accessing and processing data stored in a data source (usually a relational database) using the JavaTM programming language. 
java.text Provides classes and interfaces for handling text, dates, numbers, and messages in a manner independent of natural languages. 
java.util Contains the collections framework, legacy collection classes, event model, date and time facilities, internationalization, and miscellaneous utility classes (a string tokenizer, a random-number generator, and a bit array). 
javax.imageio.metadata A package of the Java Image I/O API dealing with reading and writing metadata. 
javax.swing Provides a set of "lightweight" (all-Java language) components that, to the maximum degree possible, work the same on all platforms. 
javax.swing.text Provides classes and interfaces that deal with editable and noneditable text components.
