B-tree definition
<algorithm > A multi-way balanced tree.
The "B" in B-tree has never been officially defined. It could
stand for "balanced" or "Bayer", after one of the original
designers of the algorithms and structure. A B-tree is _not_
(necessarily?) a "binary tree".
A B+-tree (as used by IBM's VSAM) is a B-tree where the
leaves are also linked sequentially, thus allowing both fast
random access and sequential access to data.
[Knuth's Art of Computer Programming].
