    public class PatriciaTrie<E>
    extends AbstractBitwiseTrie<K,​V>
    Implementation of a PATRICIA Trie (Practical Algorithm to Retrieve Information Coded in Alphanumeric).

    A PATRICIA Trie is a compressed Trie. Instead of storing all data at the edges of the Trie (and having empty internal nodes), PATRICIA stores data in every node. This allows for very efficient traversal, insert, delete, predecessor, successor, prefix, range, and select(Object) operations. All operations are performed at worst in O(K) time, where K is the number of bits in the largest item in the tree. In practice, operations actually take O(A(K)) time, where A(K) is the average number of bits of all items in the tree.

    Most importantly, PATRICIA requires very few comparisons to keys while doing any operation. While performing a lookup, each comparison (at most K of them, described above) will perform a single bit comparison against the given key, instead of comparing the entire key to another key.

    The Trie can return operations in lexicographical order using the 'prefixMap', 'submap', or 'iterator' methods. The Trie can also scan for items that are 'bitwise' (using an XOR metric) by the 'select' method. Bitwise closeness is determined by the KeyAnalyzer returning true or false for a bit being set or not in a given key.

    This PATRICIA Trie supports both variable length & fixed length keys. Some methods, such as Trie.prefixMap(Object) are suited only to variable length keys.

        public java.util.Map.Entry<K,​V> select​(K key)
        Returns the Map.Entry whose key is closest in a bitwise XOR metric to the given key. This is NOT lexicographic closeness. For example, given the keys:

        Description copied from interface: OrderedMap
        Obtains an OrderedMapIterator over the map.

        Returns a view of this Trie of all elements that are prefixed by the given key.

        In a Trie with fixed size keys, this is essentially a Map.get(Object) operation.

        For example, if the Trie contains 'Anna', 'Anael', 'Analu', 'Andreas', 'Andrea', 'Andres', and 'Anatole', then a lookup of 'And' would return 'Andreas', 'Andrea', and 'Andres'.

        key - the key used in the search
        Returns:
        a SortedMap view of this Trie with all elements whose key is prefixed by the search key
