The 1978 paper "A Dichromatic Framework for Balanced Trees" by Guibas and Sedgewick[1] in which the authors introduced red/black trees to the world, they discuss algorithms for bottom up 2-3 tree's, bottom up 2-3-4 tree's, and bottom up AVL tree's usin
Well, It appears January is the month of the Red/Black tree, because here I am with yet more Red/Black tree content! Since their introduction in 1978[1] the study of red/black trees generally focused on their isomorphism with 2-3-4 trees. And, while it
