Java Group on the basis of common text in the square bracket and sorting
File A

Code:
99   >ac [John 2]  >ss[John 2] >juk[John 2]
70   >acb[Mona 3.1] >defa[Mona 3.1]
90   >ca[John 2]
100  >aa[John 2] >abc[John 2]  >bca[John 2]
85  >cde[Mona 3.1]
81 >ghi[Rambo] >ghij [Rambo]
87 >def[Mona 3.1] >fgh[Mona 3.1] <ijk [Mona 3.1]
89  >fck[Rambo] >ghij[Rambo] >kill[Rambo] >aa[Rambo]

Code:
The given output shud be 
100  >aa[John 2] >abc[John 2]  >bca[John 2]
87 >def[Mona 3.1] >fgh[Mona 3.1] <ijk [Mona 3.1]
89  >fck[Rambo] >ghij[Rambo] >kill[Rambo] >aa[Rambo]

On the basis of text common within the square brackets , we can group accordingly and take one which have highest number in each group.

How can be done ?

87 >def[Mona 3.1] >fgh[Mona 3.1] <ijk [Mona 3.1]
89  >fck[Rambo] >ghij[Rambo] >kill[Rambo] >aa[Rambo]
