      public int compare(short a, short b)
      Compare two elements according to the desired ordering criterion.

      The default implementation compares a and b using ascending order. A subclass can override this method to obtain a different ordering criterion; for example, descending order.

      Parameters:
      a - First element being compared.
      b - Second element being compared.
      Returns:
      A number less than, equal to, or greater than 0 if a comes before, is the same as, or comes after b, respectively.
