2-3-4-5-6-7-8-etc Trees

• In 2-3 Trees it was pointed out that 2-3 and 2-3-4 Trees provide advantages but larger nodes didn't appear useful because:

• There is a trade off in terms of the height of the tree and the number of comparisons that are required at each branch point.

• two many items in the nodes and the tree begins to act linear.
