title: '208. Implement Trie (Prefix Tree)'
description: A trie (pronounced as "try") or prefix tree is a tree data structure used to efficiently store and retrieve keys in a dataset of strings. There are various applications of this data structure, such as autocomplete and spellchecker

### Example 1:
- Input: ``
- Output: ``
- Explanation: Input ["Trie", "insert", "search", "search", "startsWith", "insert", "search"] `[[]`, `["apple"]`, `["apple"]`, `["app"]`, `["app"]`, `["app"]`, ["app"]] Output [null, null, true, false, true, null, true] Explanation Trie trie = new Trie(); trie.insert("apple"); trie.search("apple"); // return True trie.search("app"); // return False trie.startsWith("app"); // return True trie.insert("app"); trie.search("app"); // return True
### Constraints:
- `1 <= word.length, prefix.length <= 2000`
- `word` and `prefix` consist only of lowercase English letters.
- At most 3 * 10^4 calls in total will be made to insert, search, and startsWith.
## Solution
```py
class TrieNode:
def __init__(self):
self.children = {}
self.endOfWord = False
class Trie:
def __init__(self):
self.root = TrieNode()
def insert(self, word: str) -> None:
cur = self.root
for c in word:
if c not in cur.children:
cur.children[c] = TrieNode()
cur = cur.children[c]
cur.endOfWord = True
def search(self, word: str) -> bool:
cur = self.root
for c in word:
if c not in cur.children:
return False
cur = cur.children[c]
return cur.endOfWord
def startsWith(self, prefix: str) -> bool:
cur = self.root
for c in prefix:
if c not in cur.children:
return False
cur = cur.children[c]
return True
# Your Trie object will be instantiated and called as such:
# obj = Trie()
# obj.insert(word)
# param_2 = obj.search(word)
# param_3 = obj.startsWith(prefix)
```
