Java Program to Find line with max character length in Descending Order

Description

This java interview program is about finding lines with max character from a file in descending order.In this case, we will be using buffered reader to read a file and use java provided data structure TreeSet to hold the line and it's character length as it automatically maintains ascending order.Following is the program to find two lines with max characters in descending order.
