This is a submission for DEV Computer Science Challenge v24.06.12: One Byte Explainer.

Explainer

Binary Tree: A structure with nodes, each having up to two children, where the left is smaller and the right is larger. It allows fast operations by halving the dataset, reducing tasks to O(log n). Essential for managing data in databases and file systems.

Additional Context

Introduced in the 1960s, binary trees revolutionized data organization. They're foundational in algorithms, enabling efficient searching and sorting. Used in applications like databases and file systems, they handle large datasets quickly and reliably.
