## Steps/Algorithm: ## Steps/Algorithm:
**Linear Search( Array A, Value x)** **Linear Search( Array A, Value x)**
Step 1: Set i to 1 Step 1: Set i to 1
Step 2: if i > n then go to step 7
Step 3: if A[i] = x then go to step 6 Step 2: if i > n then go to step 7
Step 4: Set i to i + 1
Step 5: Go to Step 2 Step 3: if A[i] = x then go to step 6
Step 6: Print Element x Found at index i and go to step 8
Step 7: Print element not found Step 4: Set i to i + 1
Step 5: Go to Step 2
Step 6: Print Element x Found at index i and go to step 8
Step 7: Print element not found
Step 8: Exit Step 8: Exit
