The question in task 3 seems not clear. Anyone can help me?
package com.example;
import java.util.Date;
public class BlogPost implements Comparable {
private String mAuthor;
private String mTitle;
private String mBody;
private String mCategory;
private Date mCreationDate;
public int compareTo(Object obj) {
BlogPost blog = (BlogPost) obj;
if (equals(blog)) {
return 0;
}
return 1;
}
public BlogPost(String author, String title, String body, String category, Date creationDate) {
mAuthor = author;
mTitle = title;
mBody = body;
mCategory = category;
mCreationDate = creationDate;
}
public String[] getWords() {
return mBody.split("\\s+");
}
public String getAuthor() {
return mAuthor;
}
public String getTitle() {
return mTitle;
}
public String getBody() {
return mBody;
}
public String getCategory() {
return mCategory;
}
public Date getCreationDate() {
return mCreationDate;
}
}

28,694 PointsI didn't understand the question either, but i took a guess. It seems to accept:
public int compareTo(Object obj) {
BlogPost blog = (BlogPost) obj;
if (equals(blog)) {
return 0;
} else {
return mCreationDate.compareTo(blog.getCreationDate());
}
//return 1;
}

14,957 PointsYou compareTo method should look like this:
@Override
public int compareTo(BlogPost bp) {
Date otherDate = bp.getCreationDate();
return mCreationDate.compareTo(otherDate);
}
