Trie is a tree-based data structure, which is used for efficient retrieval of a key in a large dataset of strings.
It is a type of k-ary search tree used for storing and searching a specific key from a set. Using Trie, search complexities can be brought to optimal limit (key length).
Data structure and relevant algorithms for extremely fast prefix/fuzzy string searching.
If we store keys in a binary search tree, a well balanced BST will need time proportional to M * log N, where M is the maximum string length and N is the number of keys in the tree.
Trie is an efficient information retrieval data structure. Using Trie, search complexities can be brought to optimal limit O(M) (Where M is the maximum string length).
The idea is that all strings sharing common prefix should come from a common node. The tries are used in spell checking programs.
- Preprocessing pattern improves the performance of pattern matching algorithm. But if a text is very large then it is better to preprocess text instead of pattern for efficient search.
- A trie is a data structure that supports pattern matching queries in time proportional to the pattern size.

Open the folder to view the working and output..
Create a Trie with:
Trie *t = new Trie();
Add Keys with:
// i.e. you could store any information you would like to associate with
// this particular key.
t->insert(name, num);
Find a key with:
bool ok = t->search(s);
Remove Keys with:
t->remove(name);
Search with:
t->search(s);
Prefix search with:
t->starts_with(s);
Prefix search with recommendations:
t->show_recommendations(name);
