Submitted by manu jemini, on december 24, 2017 a binary search tree bst is a widely used data structure. Suppose that the computer you will be using has disk blocks holding 4096 bytes, the key is 4 bytes long, each child pointer which is a disk block id is 4 bytes, the parent is 4 bytes long and the data. For insertion, we need to be able to check if we have a valid redblack tree with all invariants except that the color invariant might be violated between the root and its left child or the root and its right child. Suppose that you have an application in which you want to use b trees. Almost always better than maintaining a sorted file. But its not practical to hope to store all the rows in the table one after another, in sorted order, because this requires rewriting the entire table with.
Being a leaf node there are no subtrees to worry about. Binary search tree or bst is a special kind of binary tree in which the values of all the nodes of the left subtree of any node of the tree are smaller than the value of the node. It is important to note that not all insertions and deletions will result into violation of b tree properties of the tree nodes. Deletion from a btree is more complicated than insertion, because we can delete a key from any nodenot just a leafand when we delete a key from an internal node, we will have to rearrange the nodes. Since it is a balance tree, it searches for the position of the records in the file, and then it fetchesinserts deletes the records.
A btree is an extension of a bst instead of up to 2 children, a btree can have up to m children for some prespeci ed integer m called the order of the btree.

Deletion from a b tree is analogous to insertion but a little more complicated. Divide the toplevel node if it gets full of keys and addresses. Notice that we do not delete the same value from the nonleaf nodes although a nonleaf node would contain this value as a router value. In that data structure, the nodes are in held in a tree like structure. Lets focus on the deletion of a node from a binary search tree.
