Explanation of Solution

Linear search:

  • Linear search or sequential search is the process of searching the particular element in the array one by one until the searching element is found.
  • Here, it uses the loop iteration to start from the beginning of the array to the last element until it finds out the searching element.
  • This searching process is continued till the last element until the searching element is found from the array.
  • If the searching element is not present in the array, then the search process returns the message according to unsuccessful search.
