Fixes incorrect statement about root nodes in the Merkle tree theory #33

Open smoyer64 opened 3 years ago

smoyer64 commented 3 years ago

**🐛 bug fix

The statement:

If the number of leaf nodes is a multiple of 2 the flat tree will only have a single root.

is incorrect and should rather state:

If the number of leaf nodes is a power of 2 the flat tree will only have a single root.
