Code the program for Linear Search in C

[HarendraSingh22]

Add it to Linear_Search.c in SearchAlgorithms folder

@HarendraSingh22 I would like to contribute the code for it.

i added the implementation for linear search and binary search, see pull request #14

[awesomesanjay]

#include <stdio.h>

int linearSearch(int arr[], int size, int target) {
for(int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
if(arr[i] == target) {
return i; // Return index where target is found
}
}
return -1; // Return -1 if target is not found
}

int main() {
int arr[] = {10, 25, 30, 45, 50};
int size = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
int target;

printf("Enter the number to search: ");
scanf("%d", &target);

int result = linearSearch(arr, size, target);

if(result != -1) {
    printf("Element found at index %d\n", result);
} else {
    printf("Element not found in the array\n");
}

return 0;
