2-3 Insertion

Explore insertion techniques in 2-3 trees, a balanced tree data structure. Understand the step-by-step algorithm to insert values, handle node splits, and maintain tree properties. This lesson helps you implement efficient insertions essential for coding interviews.

Introduction

Insertion in 2-3 Trees is a lot different from the insertion in Binary Search Trees. In 2-3 Trees, values are only inserted at leaf nodes at certain conditions. As discussed before, the insertion algorithm takes O(log n)O(log\ n) time where n is the number of nodes in the tree. Searching an element is done in ...
