The Zope Object Database (ZODB) comes with BTrees.

Not very useful if you want to understand algorithms
in Python--it's written in C, but useful if you need
a real BTree implementation for python. I.e. if you
have very big data sets that you need to search through
etc.

The python list type is more like a vector than like
a linked list.

Are you just trying to understand the concepts, or do
you think these structures would be useful for some
particular need of yours?
