title: What's the sort order of Java's Collections.sort(list, comparator)? small to big or big to small?
body: <p>Apparently, it's not documented or I missed it.</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/Collections.html#sort%28java.util.List,%20java.util.Comparator%29" rel="noreferrer">Here</a>'s the link to the documentation and below's the text as an image:</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong>(17/5): I think too many confused this question to be a comparator question. It is not. The comparator compares between 2 elements. According to that comparison, the list sorted. <strong>How? Ascending or Descending?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I'll refine/simplify the question even further: If the comparator decides that element A is smaller than element B. <strong>In the sorted list</strong>, will element A be located at a lower index than element B?</p>
