What is wrong with this linear search?
Jan 23 2013 7:13 AM
Basically I am working on my assignment and i need to make my code read a number then check to see if the number is in an array I created. This is the code at the moment starting from where i create the array
Console.WriteLine("Press enter to see question 7");
Console.ReadKey();
int MaxValue;
int RandomNumber;
Random MyRandom;
MaxValue = 20;
MyRandom = new Random();
RandomNumber = MyRandom.Next(MaxValue);
int[] firstArray = new int[10];
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
RandomNumber = MyRandom.Next(MaxValue);
firstArray[i] = RandomNumber;
}
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("Item {0} in the array is {1}", i, firstArray[i]);
}
//8
Console.WriteLine("Press enter to see question 8");
Console.ReadKey();
Console.WriteLine("The lowest number in the array is {0}", firstArray.Min());
//9
int j;
for (j = 0; j < 20; j++)
{
if (linear_search(j, 7, firstArray))
System.Console.WriteLine(j + "if found in the array");
else
System.Console.WriteLine(j + "is not found in the array");
}
The problem I have at the moment is it says "the name "linear_search" does not exist in the current context". Also I know there are probably problems with the code anyway, since i'm not really sure how to use linear searches and can't find anywhere that explains it properly. I know the code at the moment isn't asking for input, and is just looking for 7 in the code, but that's just for while i make it work.
