ZAMPP installation

In our previous tutorial we saw how to install Vertrigo web server, today I will describe how to install XAMPP web server in your local computer. XAMPP is a very powerful software that provides integrated PHP environment. To create PHP environment we need Apache, PHP, MySQL but XAMPP consolidate those three things. So follow the following steps to install ZAMPP in your computer as a server.  

ZAMPP Installation Procedure

I divided the installation procedure into three steps.

Step 1: 
We can install ZAMPP in two ways, one is manually and second one is through installer. In this section we try to install XAMPP manually. To do this, at first you need to download ZAMPP from ZAMPP DOWNLOAD.

Step 2: 

After downloading the file, extract the downloaded file. After extracting the file you need to choose where you want to install XAMPP such that I want to install ZAMPP in D folder. So put your extracted file in D folder. Double click on Setup_xampp.bat. Now click on xampp-control.exe, a window will open. From this window you need to start Apache and MySQL.
 
Your work is done. Now it is time to put http://localhost/ in your browser.

Step 3:
It is another way to install ZAMPP. In step 2 we install ZAMPP in D folder but if you want to install ZAMPP in c drive then follow the following steps.

In this installation setup_xampp.bat file is not necessary. You can directly install it by clicking on the xamp-control.exe file. After installation, a XAMPP icon will appear in your desktop. When you Click on this icon, a window will appear. From this window you need to start Apache and MySQL. By this time, we have created PHP environment, now you can start our PHP tutorials.

How to construct a B+ tree with example

Image
A B+ tree contains n-1 search key values K1K2…….Kn-1 and have n pointers.   In a B+ tree the data are ordered  sequentially.  The leaf node may hold up to n pointers and must hold at least N/2 pointers. The root node must hold at least two pointers, unless the tree consists of only one node.  Now we construct a B+ tree. Construct a B+ tree for the following set of key values: (2,3,5,7,11,17,19,23,29,31) Assume that the tree is initially empty and values are added in ascending order. Construct a B+ tree where the pointer number is Four. Solution: When a node exceeds n-1 search key value then we split it into two nodes. First node contains (ceiling(n-1)/2) values.  2 nd node contains remaining node. Copy the smallest search key value of the second node to the parent node. Let's start, we know each node has N pointer and has N-1 search key values. In our example pointer number is 4, so the search key value is 4-1=3. So each node has 4 pointers and 3 search key value. The first node i
