I think the author means the data structure 'trie', not the action 'try': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trie

Yeah, rereading this article today it really doesn't give a summary of what "tries" are until pretty deep into it. Smiling that the author updated the title because of my debauchery last night.

Ah, well then I'm too drunk to be reading this. Never heard of "tries", guess I haven't read enough. Conclusion could have used some improvement for sure.
