| 1 | +# JavaScript Trie Data Structure |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +The JavaScript Trie data structure is implemented in the `Trie` class, which allows you to efficiently store, search for, and check word prefixes. Here's how to use the `Trie` class: |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +## Introduction |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +To get started with the `Trie` class, you can install the package via npm using the following command: |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +```bash |
| 10 | +npm install adv-dsa |
| 11 | +``` |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Example Usage |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +### Creating a Trie |
| 16 | +You can create a new Trie using the `Trie` class: |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +```javascript |
| 19 | +const Trie = require('adv-dsa'); |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +// Initialize a new Trie |
| 22 | +const trie = new Trie(); |
| 23 | +``` |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +### Inserting Words |
| 26 | +You can insert words into the Trie using the `insert` method: |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +```javascript |
| 29 | +trie.insert('apple'); |
| 30 | +trie.insert('app'); |
| 31 | +trie.insert('banana'); |
| 32 | +``` |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +### Searching for Words |
| 35 | +You can search for words in the Trie using the `search` method: |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +```javascript |
| 38 | +const isApplePresent = trie.search('apple'); // true |
| 39 | +const isBananaPresent = trie.search('banana'); // true |
| 40 | +const isOrangePresent = trie.search('orange'); // false |
| 41 | +``` |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +### Checking for Word Prefixes |
| 44 | +You can check for word prefixes in the Trie using the `startsWith` method: |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +```javascript |
| 47 | +const startsWithApp = trie.startsWith('app'); // true |
| 48 | +const startsWithBan = trie.startsWith('ban'); // true |
| 49 | +const startsWithOr = trie.startsWith('or'); // false |
| 50 | +``` |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +## Testing |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +You can also test the `Trie` class using the provided test cases in your test file (e.g., `test.js`). Make sure to import the `Trie` class and use the `assert` module for testing: |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +```javascript |
| 57 | +const assert = require('assert'); |
| 58 | +const Trie = require('adv-dsa'); |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +// Your test cases go here |
| 61 | +``` |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +## Conclusion |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +The `Trie` class in JavaScript allows you to efficiently store and manage a collection of words, search for words, and check for word prefixes. It is commonly used in applications related to autocomplete, spell checking, and word-based data retrieval. |
