Java - LinkedList compareTo method

-----------------------------------------------------

please implement the method. if the parameter list is longer and a positive integer if the current list object is longer.

----------------------------------

public linkedList{

.....

public int compareTo(LinkedList list){

//please implement this method

}

}

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

//example

current linkedlist have 6 nodes: a b c x y z

other linkedlist have 6 nodes: a b c x y z

this should return 0, since both have same amount of Nodes, and the object in the nodes are the same, and same order

ex.

other linkedlist have 3 nodes: a b c

current linkedlist is have 6 nodes: d b o x y z

If the first nonmatching value of its current list object compares as less than the corresponding value of its parameter list, the method should return some negative integer. This method should return a negative integer if the parameter list is longer and a positive integer if the current list object is longer

----

ex.

current linkedlist is: a b c x y z g d b

other linkedlist is: a b c

this should return positive number,

ex.

other linkedlist is: a b c

current linkedlist is: a b x c y z a d b c

this should return positive number

---

If the first nonmatching value of the current list

object is greater than the corresponding value of the parameter list and If all of the values of its current list object and its parameter list compare identically, except one list is longer. this method should return some positive integer
