Description

Supports several variations on the B-tree, which includes the 2-3 tree. Users provide values to be inserted/found/deleted.

Evaluation

Fairly clear presentation, nice graphics, easy to use. Clearly shows the various steps of moving values between the nodes of the tree. However, there is no explanation for the steps that are taking place, and so it can be difficult to follow the action. For the trees of higher degree, it can be rather tedious entering data (there is no mechanism for generating random data streams).
