Comparable is an interface in Java that is used to define the natural ordering of objects of a class. It is used to compare objects based on a single property or attribute, which is useful for sorting and searching of collections. The class that implements the Comparable interface can be sorted or put in a sorted collection using the sort() method, or the collection can be sorted using the Collections.sort() method, which uses the compareTo() method defined in the class that implements the Comparable interface. The compareTo() method returns a negative, zero or positive integer depending on whether the object is less than, equal to, or greater than the object being compared to. The Comparable interface is widely used in Java programming, especially when sorting or searching collections of objects.
