Solution
| S. No. | Linear Search | Binary Search |
| 1. | Linear search works both for sorted and unsorted data. | Binary search works on sorted data (either in ascending order or in descending order). |
| 2. | Linear search begins at the start of an array, i.e., at 0th position. | This technique divides the array into two halves, and the desired data item is searched in each half. |
Notes
Students should refer to the answer according to their questions.
