 | Implementation of the [Modified Merkle Patricia Trie](https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/data-structures-and-encoding/patricia-merkle-mpt/) as specified in the [Ethereum Yellow Paper](http://gavwood.com/Paper.pdf) |

-> The modified Merkle Patricia tree (mpt) provides a persistent data structure to map between arbitrary-length binary data (byte arrays). It is defined in terms of a mutable data structure to map between 256-bit binary fragments and arbitrary-length binary data. The core of the mpt, and its sole requirement in terms of the protocol specification, is to provide a single 32-byte value that identifies a given set of key-value pairs.
