3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the primary function of the Linear Search algorithm?
Think about its sequential checking nature.
What will the Linear Search algorithm return if it does not find the target?
It's a common return value indicating absence.
What does Linear Search primarily check?
Remember the sequential nature of the search.
Is Linear Search efficient for large datasets?
Consider how time complexity scales with size.
You are given an unsorted array [12, 3, 45, 7, 22, 6] and asked to find the index of number 7 using Linear Search. Describe the steps and what index will you find?
Keep track of the index as you check each number.
If you apply Linear Search to a large dataset of 1,000,000 integer values where the target is the last element, estimate how many checks the algorithm will make?
Consider the nature of Linear Search when the target is at the end.
