#this is really basic, but it'll do
Array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8] #example array
def LinearSearch(Array, SearchVal): #SearchVal= value you are looking for
	for i in range(len(Array)):
      if Array[i]== SearchVal:
        return True
    return False
 #once it has looped through all of the array and hasn't found
 #the search value, it will return False.

Linear search in python

# Linear Search:

"""
Another classic example of a brute force algorithm is Linear Search. 
This involves checking each item in a collection to see if it is the 
one we are looking for.
In Python, it can be implemented like this:

"""

arr = [42,2,3,1,4,6]
search_n = 2
for position, item in enumerate(arr):
    if item == search_n:
        print("%d The searching number is at position %d inside the array."%(search_n,position+1))
        break
else:
    print("Sorry! Not Found.")
    
"""
Of course there are many different implementations of this algorithm. 
I like this one because it makes use of Python’s very handy enumerate function. 
Regardless of the details of the implementation, 
the basic idea remains the same – iterate through the collection (in the case above, a Python list), 
and check if each item is the target.I like to use the variable names search_n and array from the 
expression looking for a search_n in a array.
