 In this assignment you will develop a program to manage the products for an online shopping platform, let's call this program New York Shopping. Please read the entire handout before starting to code the assignment.
 
-It is highly recommended that before you begin coding, you practice constructing a couple of trees by hand and then checking your work with [this online visualization tool](https://www.cs.usfca.edu/~galles/visualization/BPlusTree.html).
