Write an algorithm to search an element using linear search algorithm.

Write an algorithm to search an element using  linear search algorithm.

Algorithm for linear search algorithm steps:

Step 1 : START

Step 2 : input N

Step 3 : for I← 0 to N -1

Read A [ I ]

Step 4 : LOC = -1

Step 5 : For I = 0 to N- 1 do

Step 6 : If ( ELEMENT = A[I]) Then

Step 7: LOC = I

Step 8 : Goto step 9

[ end if ]

[ end for ]

Step 9 : If ( LOC > = 0 ) then

Step 10: Print “ ELEMENT Found in location “ , LOC.

Step 11: else

Step 12: Print “ ELEMENT not found ”

Step 13 : Stop.
