• It is a simple search algorithm that search a target value in an array or list.

• It sequentially scan the array, comparing each array item with the search element.

• If search element is found in an array then the index of a element is returned.

• The time complexity of linear search is O(n).

• It can be applied to both sorted and unsorted array.
