Finding the first value greater than in a SortedMap

I'd like to know what is there a better way to find the first value greater than an inputted value in a large SortedMap instead of looping through all values in my example below. Or if SortedMap is a the best structure to use for this.

Could this be achieved using google-collections? Thanks in advance

public class mapTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {

SortedMap<Double, Object> sortedMap = new TreeMap<Double, Object>();
    sortedMap.put(30d, "开发者_运维知识库lala");     
    sortedMap.put(10d, "foo");
    sortedMap.put(25d, "bar");
    System.out.println("result: " + findFirstValueGreaterThan(sortedMap, 28d));
}

public static Object findFirstValueGreaterThan(SortedMap<Double, Object> sortedMap, Double value) {
    for (Entry<Double, Object> entry : sortedMap.entrySet()) {
        if (entry.getKey() > value) {
            // return first value with a key greater than the inputted value
            return entry.getValue();
        }
    }
    return null;
}
}

It's all in the docs:

ceilingKey(K key)
Returns the least key greater than or equal to the given key, or null if there is no such key.

So,

findFirstValueGreaterThan(sortedMap, 28d)

should be

sortedMap.ceilingKey(28d)

Pay attention at difference between "greater than" and "greater than or equal to", though.

This solution only requires SortedMap. Please note that tailMap typically doesn't create a new map, so it's fast.

public static <K extends Comparable<K>, V> V
        findFirstValueGreaterThan(SortedMap<K, V> map, K value) {
    Iterator<Entry<K, V>> it = map.tailMap(value).entrySet().iterator();
    if (it.hasNext()) {
        Entry<K, V> e = it.next();
        if (e.getKey().compareTo(value) > 0) {
            return e.getValue();
        } else if (it.hasNext()) {
            return it.next().getValue();
        }
    }
    return null;
}
