/**
* Compares this buffer to another.
*
* <p>Two float buffers are compared by comparing their sequences of remaining elements
* lexicographically, without regard to the starting position of each sequence within its
* corresponding buffer.
*
* <p>Pairs of {@code float} elements are compared as if by invoking {@link
* Float#compare(float,float)}, except that {@code -0.0} and {@code 0.0} are considered to be
* equal. {@code Float.NaN} is considered by this method to be equal to itself and greater than
* all other {@code float} values (including {@code Float.POSITIVE_INFINITY}).
*
* <p>A float buffer is not comparable to any other type of object.
*
* @return A negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this buffer is less than, equal to,
* or greater than the given buffer
