What is the time complexity of linear search and binary search algorithms?

Linear search and binary search are two commonly used algorithms for searching for a particular element in a collection of data. The time complexity of an algorithm measures the amount of time it takes to run as a function of the input size. In the case of searching algorithms, the input size is typically the size of the collection being searched. Linear search, also known as sequential search, involves checking each element of the collection in turn until the target element is found or the end of the collection is reached. The time complexity of linear search is O(n), where n is the size of the collection. This means that the time it takes to run the algorithm increases linearly with the size of the collection. In the worst case scenario, whe....
