[jira] [Commented] (LANG-483) Add ComparisonUtils to Commons Lang

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-483?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13085561#comment-13085561 ] 

Henri Yandell commented on LANG-483:
------------------------------------

I like the enum, but it's < 0, 0 and > 0; rather than -1, 0 and 1. I'm not sure how often people use something other than -1 and +1; presumably when they're being clever.

> It'd be impossible to guess how many times code as been written to find the position of the maximum element in an array or the value of the minimum element in a list, etc.  This class will handle all of that.
