The present invention relates to a system and method for searching information. The method involves defining a first node having a first range, and a second node having a second range that is either less than or greater than the first range. Each of the first and second ranges has a plurality of range values, and each of the range values has data associated therewith. Information having a value is then received. The method determines if the value is located in the first node, if so, data associated with the value is retrieved. Otherwise, the method determines if the value is located in the second node. Data associated with the value is retrieved if the value is located in the second node.
