```
public static final double FIRST

    Priority for items that must be sorted first.
    Note that it is still possible to prioritize something earlier than this value (e.g., for testing purposes), although doing so strongly discouraged in production.

- Method Detail
  - compare
```
public static int compare(Prioritized p1,
                          Prioritized p2)
```
    Compares two Prioritized objects.
    Note: this method provides a natural ordering that may be inconsistent with equals. That is, two unequal objects may often have the same priority, and thus return 0 when compared in this fashion. Hence, if this method is used as a basis for implementing Comparable.compareTo(T) or Comparator.compare(T, T), that implementation may want to impose logic beyond that of this method, for breaking ties, if a total ordering consistent with equals is always required.
    
    Returns:
    
    -1 if p1's priority is higher than p2's, 1 if p2's priority is higher than p1's, or 0 if they have the same priority.

  - inject
```
public static boolean inject(Object o,
                             double priority)
```
    Injects the specified priority into the given object. Note that this is only possible if the given object implements the Prioritized interface.
    
    Parameters:
    
    o - The object to which the priority should be assigned.
    
    Returns:
    
    true If the priority was successfully injected.
