As noted above, there is some disagreement about the use of the term rounded binary. The disagreements concern two issues: whether the names rounded binary, incipient ternary, or small ternary is more appropriate to describe the form; and how much of the A section must return at the end of the B section to be considered rounded.
Like binary search trees and other data structures, ternary search trees can become degenerate depending on the order of the keys. [3] [self-published source?] Inserting keys in alphabetical order is one way to attain the worst possible degenerate tree. [1] Inserting the keys in random order often produces a well-balanced tree.

Newton's method in optimization (can be used to search for where the derivative is zero) Golden-section search (similar to ternary search, useful if evaluating f takes most of the time per iteration) Binary search algorithm (can be used to search for where the derivative changes in sign) Interpolation search; Exponential search; Linear search
A simple ternary tree of size 10 and height 2. In computer science, a ternary tree is a tree data structure in which each node has at most three child nodes, usually distinguished as "left", “mid” and "right". Nodes with children are parent nodes, and child nodes may contain references to their parents.
A Binary Search Tree is a node-based data structure where each node contains a key and two subtrees, the left and right. For all nodes, the left subtree's key must be less than the node's key, and the right subtree's key must be greater than the node's key. These subtrees must all qualify as binary search trees.

In computer science, a search data structure [citation needed] is any data structure that allows the efficient retrieval of specific items from a set of items, such as a specific record from a database. The simplest, most general, and least efficient search structure is merely an unordered sequential list of all the items.
In computer science, tree traversal (also known as tree search and walking the tree) is a form of graph traversal and refers to the process of visiting (e.g. retrieving, updating, or deleting) each node in a tree data structure, exactly once. Such traversals are classified by the order in which the nodes are visited.
