Complete Java SE 8 Developer Bootcamp - Comparable

The video tutorial explains how to sort collections and arrays using natural ordering, which follows Unicode precedence. It discusses the need to implement the Comparable interface for sorting custom classes, using the MyDate class as an example. The tutorial covers handling ClassCastException and implementing the compareTo method to define sorting logic. It concludes with instructions on sorting in both ascending and descending order.
