Insertion in B+ Tree
Insertion in a B+ tree involves placing a new key-value pair into the appropriate leaf node and ensuring tree balance through splits and updates.
Step-by-step algorithm:
- Insertion:
- Search for the leaf node to insert the key-value pair.
- If the leaf node is full, split it.
- Propagate median key to parent if necessary.
- Split parent if full.
- Repeat until balanced.
- Search:
- Traverse down the tree to find leaf node.
- Search for key in leaf node.
- Return value if found, else indicate failure.
- Print Tree:
- Traverse tree to print its structure.
- Example Operations:
- Insert key-value pairs.
- Search for specific keys.
- Print the tree structure.
Below is the implementation of the above idea:

break

self.keys = self.keys[:i] + [[key]] + self.keys[i:]

B+ Tree in Python
In computer science, data structures are crucial in efficiently managing and organizing data. Among these, the B+ tree is a powerful and important data structure, widely used in databases and file systems. In this article, we will discuss the concept of B+ trees, exploring their structure, operations, and implementation in Python.
