Tx6 bitcoin
Are the individual pieces tx6 bitcoin the tx6 bitcoin cataloged in such a way so that the position of each piece is known? The Merkle tree isn't included in the download data. Just the root hash is included in the block header. The client has to reconstruct the tree in order to verify the root hash. It does this by going through the transaction list as it appears in the block data. Each transaction hash is a node at the top of the tree.
So, if you have 6 transactions, you have 6 nodes the tx6 bitcoin transaction hash is repeated if you have an odd number of nodes. Then the next level of the tree is computed where each node is formed by hashing the two nodes above it again, the last node is duplicated if you have an odd number.
This process continues until you have just one node - the root node. It is checked against the root in the header to make sure it matches. If it does, you know the transactions have not been modified. Note that the block hash is only over the block header and does not include the transactions themselves.

In short, how does one know what piece of the tx6 bitcoin goes where? JoeWhite Thank you for looking Joe White! I must be missing something because I don't understand how having the hashes in the tree allows one tx6 bitcoin know where they are in the tree unless if the program simply trials and errors until it is reconstructed. Please add your notes in an answer if it can explain how, per your link, d5 is co-branched with d6 and contains d1 concat d2 before trying every tx6 bitcoin combination.
