printf("\nEnter no of elements :");
scanf("%d", &num);
printf("\nEnter the values :");
for (i = 0; i < num; i++) {
scanf("%d", &a[i]);
}
//Read the element to be searched
printf("\nEnter the elements to be searched :");
scanf("%d", &ele);
//Search starts from the zeroth location
i = 0;
while (i < num && ele != a[i]) {
i++;
}
//If i < num then Match found
if (i < num) {
printf("Number found at the location = %d", i + 1);
} else {
printf("Number not found");
}
return (0);
}
Enter no of elements :5
Enter the values :2 3 5 4 6
Enter the elements to be searched :5
Number found at the location = 3
First understand the algorithm carefully. Then study the program line-by-line and compare it with the output. Finally, review the explanation section to strengthen your logic and programming understanding.
Rewrite the program without looking at the code. Modify values, conditions or logic and run it again. This helps improve confidence and strengthens coding skills much faster.
