Question
Chapter 8, Problem 10RQE
“linear search” is called as sequential search, because the search element is found by comparing each elements present in the array using a loop one after another until the search element is found which is not suitable for larger size array.
Program Plan Intro
Linear search:
- Linear search or sequential search is the process of searching for a particular element that is present in the array one by one till the last element in the search element is found.
- The search uses a loop that iterates from the beginning till the last element to find the search element.
- The search continues for all the elements present in the array until the last element.
- The search of the target element is made after comparing it with each and every element that is present in the array.
- The search process continues until the target value or search value is found.
- If the search element is not found, the search gets returned unsuccessfully.
