Description

Simple presentation for linear search. User selects an array size and it is loaded with random data. The search process merely colors the values in the array sequentially one at a time from the front until the value is found or array exhausted.

Evaluation

AV is simple and easy to use. There is no control over the animation once started, i.e. once we press the “Search” button it will show the scan progressing through the array by means of change in color of the array’s elements and that finishes whenever it finds the target element or at the end element of the array.
