3
+ In computer science, a trie, also called digital tree and sometimes
4
+ radix tree or prefix tree (as they can be searched by prefixes),
5
+ is a kind of search tree—an ordered tree data structure that is
6
+ used to store a dynamic set or associative array where the keys
7
+ are usually strings. Unlike a binary search tree, no node in the
8
+ tree stores the key associated with that node; instead, its
9
+ position in the tree defines the key with which it is associated.
10
+ All the descendants of a node have a common prefix of the string
11
+ associated with that node, and the root is associated with the
12
+ empty string. Values are not necessarily associated with every
13
+ node. Rather, values tend only to be associated with leaves,
14
+ and with some inner nodes that correspond to keys of interest.
15
+ For the space-optimized presentation of prefix tree, see compact
16
+ prefix tree.
