CHAPTER 4 ■ OPERATORS



  • The details of each of the operators.

  • When and how to use the equals and hashCode methods.

  • How to compare objects with their natural values and how to compare objects
    with arbitrary values.


This chapter presents a lot of complex information in a fairly short space. I recommend reading it
again. Also, as I mentioned before, there's no substitute for doing some programming. You should create
a few classes that can be compared in various ways and do some fiddling with the less-obvious operators
(such as the bitwise operators).
