# Function to perform Linear Search
def linear_search(arr, target):
# Loop through the list to find the target
for i in range(len(arr)):
if arr[i] == target:
return i # Return the index of the target element
return -1 # Return -1 if the element is not found
# Example usage
arr = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
target = 30
# Perform linear search
result = linear_search(arr, target)
if result != -1:
print(f"Element {target} found at index {result}")
else:
print(f"Element {target} not found in the list")
Sample Output
Element 30 found at index 2
