Then,
insert 55.
|
|
|
|
– |
The
first step is to locate the leaf of the tree in which this
|
|
|
|
index
belongs by determining where the search for 55
|
|
|
|
would
terminate.
|
|
|
| • |
We
would find that we would want to insert 55 in
|
|
|
|
the
node containing 50,56,57, 58.
|
|
|
|
– |
But,
that would cause this node to contain 5 records.
|
|
|
|
Since
a node can contain only 4 records, you must split
|
|
|
|
this
node into two...the new left node gets the two smaller
|
|
|
values
and the new right node gets the two larger values.
