 * Creates a Trie structure.  A trie is a data storage object that maps any value to a 
 * string of text.  It features very fast lookup and deletion, but grows very slow for 
 * insertion once tens of thousands of items are added.
 *
 * Keys in Tries are unique.  That is, each key may only have one value.  Unlike arrays, 
 * Tries cannot be iterated right now.  Since the contents are known to be unique, to 
 * work around this, you can use ADT Arrays to store a list of keys known to be in a 
 * Trie.
