example of linear search
Example: linear search
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int search(int arr[], int n, int key)
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
if (arr[i] == key)
return i;
return -1;
}
int main()
{
int arr[] = { 99,4,3,8,1 };
int key = 8;
int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
int result = search(arr, n, key);
(result == -1)
? cout << "Element is not present in array"
: cout << "Element is present at index " << result;
return 0;
}
