2)Is hash range partition is possible ?? or any other composite partitioning is possible where primary partition is hash ?? if no why is it so

3)what kind of algorithm is implemented in index searching in b -tree

Since you don't know the answers & can't find them online, how will you know what is posted here is correct or bogus?
