- `void java.util.Arrays.sort(double[])`: A static method facilitating in-place sorting of the provided array.
- `java.util.Scanner` Class:
  - Constructor `Scanner(java.io.InputStream)`: Creates a scanner object for scanning values from given input stream.
  - Methods `int nextInt()`, `double nextDouble()`: Scan an integer or `double` value from the the input stream.
- `java.util.function.BiFunction<T, U, V>` Interface:
  - Objects implementing this interface represent functions taking two arguments of types `T` and `U`, returning a value of type `V`.
  - Member method `V apply(T, U)` is used to invoke the underlying function.
- `public static java.io.PrintStream System.out, System.err`: Represents the standard output and error streams.
- `public void java.io.PrintStream.println(String)` and `public void java.io.PrintStream.pri
