 For example, if you have the array `[1,2,4,5]` and want to insert the element `3`, you can shift `4, 5` to the right and insert `3` in the correct position. This is a `O(n)` operation, but in practice it's fast.
 
-You also save memory by not having to store pointers to children nodes, and you benifit from the cache locality of arrays. When you iterate over a sorted array, you are more likely to access elements that are close together in memory.
+You also save memory by not having to store pointers to children nodes, and you benefit from the cache locality of arrays. When you iterate over a sorted array, you are more likely to access elements that are close together in memory.
 
 But we can do better if we have a lot of elements. We can break up the array so fewer elements have to be moved when a new element is inserted. For example, if you have the array `[[1,2,4],[5,6,7]]` and you want to insert the element `3`, you can insert `3` into the first array to get `[[1,2,3,4],[5,6,7]]` and only the element `4` has to be shifted.
 
-This often outperforms the more common tree-based data structures like red-black trees with `O(log n)` insertions, deletions, and lookup. We sacrifice theoretical time complexity for practical performance.

-The size of the subarrays are a trade-off. You can modify how big you want to subarrays by setting the `load_factor`. The default is set to `DEFAULT_LOAD_FACTOR = 1000`. The subarray is split when its size is `2*load_factor`. There is no perfect value. The ideal value will depend on your use case and may require some experimentation.
