Linear Search In C Programming
In this blog, you will learn how to find the linear search in C programming.
Introduction
- In this blog, I am going to explain how to find the linear search in C programming.
- It is used to find whether the given number is present in an array or not. If it has means then it can find the location of an array.
Software Requirements
Programming
- #include < stdio.h >
- int main()
- {
- int array[100], search, c, n;
- printf("Enter the number of elements in array\n");
- scanf("%d", & n);
- printf("Enter %d integer(s)\n", n);
- for (c = 0; c < n; c++) scanf("%d", & array[c]);
- printf("Enter the number to search\n");
- scanf("%d", & search);
- for (c = 0; c < n; c++) {
- if (array[c] == search) {
- printf("%d is present at location %d.\n", search, c + 1);
- break;
- }
- }
- if (c == n) printf("%d is not present in array.\n", search);
- return 0;
- }
Explanation
- It is very simple programming and the linear search is always known as Sequential search. With the help of programming, the linear search of an array can be found.
