Question

I’ve a requirement in which i need to read values and their coordinates and place them into a matrix for displaying it later.

so lets say i’ve the following:
<name='abc', coordinates='1,3'>
<name='xyz', coordinates='2,1'>
………………………….

Now i need to put these in a ‘matrix collection’ based on their coordinate values and get display as table (with cells in the table occupying respective coordinates slot).

Is there a collection/way to do this in java? Mind you, i don’t need a swing or any graphic library techniques. I just need a datastructure to do this.

Thank you

You could use the Table class from Guava.
