the advantage of a segment tree is that it is
a more general data structure.
While binary indexed trees only support
sum queries, segment trees also support other queries.
sum queries\footnote{In fact, using \emph{two} binary
indexed trees it is possible to support minimum queries \cite{dim15},
but this is more complicated than to use a segment tree.},
segment trees also support other queries.
On the other hand, a segment tree requires more
memory and is a bit more difficult to implement.
