In a binary tree the balance factor of a node X is defined to be the height difference ():= (()) (()) [6]: 459 of its two child sub-trees rooted by node X. A node X with () < is called "left-heavy", one with () > is called "right-heavy", and one with () = is sometimes simply called "balanced".
An even number has the prime factor 2. The first: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 (sequence A005843 in the OEIS). An odd number does not have the prime ...
The higher the branching factor, the faster this "explosion" occurs. The branching factor can be cut down by a pruning algorithm. The average branching factor can be quickly calculated as the number of non-root nodes (the size of the tree, minus one; or the number of edges) divided by the number of non-leaf nodes (the number of nodes with ...
The numbers 8 and 9 are coprime, despite the fact that neither—considered individually—is a prime number, since 1 is their only common divisor. On the other hand, 6 and 9 are not coprime, because they are both divisible by 3. The numerator and denominator of a reduced fraction are coprime, by definition.
Continuing this process until every factor is prime is called prime factorization; the result is always unique up to the order of the factors by the prime factorization theorem. To factorize a small integer n using mental or pen-and-paper arithmetic, the simplest method is trial division : checking if the number is divisible by prime numbers 2 ...
This tree also appeared in papers of A. Hall in 1970 [3] and A. R. Kanga in 1990. [4] In 2008 V. E. Firstov showed generally that only three such trichotomy trees exist and give explicitly a tree similar to Berggren's but starting with initial node (4, 3, 5). [5]
A simple B+ tree example linking the keys 1–7 to data values d 1-d 7. The linked list (red) allows rapid in-order traversal. This particular tree's branching factor is =4. Both keys in leaf and internal nodes are colored gray here. By definition, each value contained within the B+ tree is a key contained in exactly one leaf node.
[1] [2] For example, a 7-smooth number is a number in which every prime factor is at most 7. Therefore, 49 = 7 2 and 15750 = 2 × 3 2 × 5 3 × 7 are both 7-smooth, while 11 and 702 = 2 × 3 3 × 13 are not 7-smooth. The term seems to have been coined by Leonard Adleman. [3]
