SortedSet is a Set which iterates over its elements in a sorted order. The
order is determined either by the elements natural ordering, or by a
Comparator
which is passed into a concrete implementation at
construction time. All elements in this set must be mutually comparable. The
ordering in this set must be consistent with equals
of its elements.

Returns the comparator used to compare elements in this SortedSet
.
Returns the first element in this SortedSet
. The first element
is the lowest element.
NoSuchElementException | when this SortedSet is empty.

Returns a SortedSet
of the specified portion of this
SortedSet
which contains elements less than the end element. The
returned SortedSet
is backed by this SortedSet
so changes
to one set are reflected by the other.

NullPointerException | when the end element is null and this SortedSet does
not support null elements.

Returns the last element in this SortedSet
. The last element is
the highest element.
NoSuchElementException | when this SortedSet is empty.

Returns a SortedSet
of the specified portion of this
SortedSet
which contains elements greater or equal to the start
element but less than the end element. The returned SortedSet
is
backed by this SortedMap so changes to one set are reflected by the
other.
