                                DataValue v2)
The compare function called by the abstract DataValueComparator class. The comparison is based on the center of IntervalValue.getMin() and IntervalValue.getMax() methods' values. Do not call this method directly. Use DataValueComparator.compare(DataCell, DataCell) instead.

Specified by:
compareDataValues in class DataValueComparator
Parameters:
v1 - the first DataValue to compare the other with
v2 - the other DataValue to compare the first with
Returns:
return -1 if v1 is smaller than v2, +1 if v1 is larger than v2, 0 otherwise
