A B-tree insertion example with each iteration. The nodes of this B-tree have at most 3 children (Knuth order 3). All insertions start at a leaf node. To insert a new element, search the tree to find the leaf node where the new element should be added. Insert the new element into that node with the following steps:
To turn a regular search tree into an order statistic tree, the nodes of the tree need to store one additional value, which is the size of the subtree rooted at that node (i.e., the number of nodes below it). All operations that modify the tree must adjust this information to preserve the invariant that size[x] = size[left[x]] + size[right[x]] + 1
2–3–4 trees are B-trees of order 4; [1] like B-trees in general, they can search, insert and delete in O(log n) time.One property of a 2–3–4 tree is that all external nodes are at the same depth.
In computer science, a 2–3 tree is a tree data structure, where every node with children (internal node) has either two children (2-node) and one data element or three children (3-node) and two data elements. A 2–3 tree is a B-tree of order 3. [1] Nodes on the outside of the tree have no children and one or two data elements. [2] [3] 2–3 ...
A B+ tree can be viewed as a B-tree in which each node contains only keys (not key–value pairs), and to which an additional level is added at the bottom with linked leaves. The primary value of a B+ tree is in storing data for efficient retrieval in a block-oriented storage context — in particular, filesystems .
Red–black trees can be made isometric to either 2–3 trees, [24] or 2–3–4 trees, [23] for any sequence of operations. The 2–3–4 tree isometry was described in 1978 by Sedgewick. [ 6 ] With 2–3–4 trees, the isometry is resolved by a "color flip," corresponding to a split, in which the red color of two children nodes leaves the ...
Figure 2. First phase of delete-min. Figure 3. Third phase of delete-min. The delete-min operation does most of the work in restoring the structure of the heap. It has three phases: The root containing the minimum element is removed, and each of its children becomes a new root.
Deletion from vEB trees is the trickiest of the operations. The call Delete(T, x) that deletes a value x from a vEB tree T operates as follows: If T.min = T.max = x then x is the only element stored in the tree and we set T.min = M and T.max = −1 to indicate that the tree is empty.
