这个项目是展示我的梦想当我第一次见到三元树的树图。

This project is to show the tree I dreamed when I first met the ternary tree concept. When I came upon the ternary tree, I get awed! It s amazing that an idea so simplistic could be so strong and fast. But it had flaws... the first one is the memory consumption. The hash table implementation consumes far less memory than the ternary tree! The second flaw is the ternary tree can be fragmented and be extremely unbalanced (as the algorithm doesn t do any balancing step) so the tree also needs a way for balancing the nodes. I tried to reduce the memory consumption by grouping three nodes into one new "int" node. -This project is to show the tree I dreamed wh en I first met the ternary tree concept.
