  Tests if `(b < a < c)` or `(b > a > c)` where the `a` is object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)`.
  `boolean`
  `equalTo(A b)`
  Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is equal to `b`
  `boolean`
  `greaterThan(A b)`
  Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is greater than `b`
  `boolean`
  `greaterThanOrEqualTo(A b)`
  Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is greater than or equal to `b`

- ## Method Details

  - ### between

    public boolean between(A b, A c)
    Tests if `[b <= a <= c]` or `[b >= a >= c]` where the `a` is object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)`.
    Parameters:
      `b` - the object to compare to the base object
      `c` - the object to compare to the base object
    Returns:
      true if the base object is between b and c

  - ### betweenExclusive

    public boolean betweenExclusive(A b, A c)
    Tests if `(b < a < c)` or `(b > a > c)` where the `a` is object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)`.
    Parameters:
      `b` - the object to compare to the base object
      `c` - the object to compare to the base object
    Returns:
      true if the base object is between b and c and not equal to those

  - ### equalTo

    public boolean equalTo(A b)
    Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is equal to `b`
    Parameters:
      `b` - the object to compare to the base object
    Returns:
      true if the value returned by `Comparable.compareTo(T)` is equal to `0`

  - ### greaterThan

    public boolean greaterThan(A b)
    Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is greater than `b`
    Parameters:
      `b` - the object to compare to the base object
    Returns:
      true if the value returned by `Comparable.compareTo(T)` is greater than `0`

  - ### greaterThanOrEqualTo

    public boolean greaterThanOrEqualTo(A b)
    Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is greater than or equal to `b`
    Parameters:
      `b` - the object to compare to the base object
    Returns:
      true if the value returned by `Comparable.compareTo(T)` is greater than or equal to `0`

  - ### lessThan

    public boolean lessThan(A b)
    Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is less than `b`
    Parameters:
      `b` - the object to compare to the base object
    Returns:
      true if the value returned by `Comparable.compareTo(T)` is less than `0`

  - ### lessThanOrEqualTo

    public boolean lessThanOrEqualTo(A b)
    Tests if the object passed to `ComparableUtils.is(A)` is less than or equal to `b`
    Parameters:
      `b` - the object to compare to the base object
    Returns:
      true if the value returned by `Comparable.compareTo(T)` is less than or equal to `0`
