Linear Search Package

Overview

The linear_search_uzimizniki package provides a utility for performing linear search operations on lists in Dart. This package includes a method to search for a target value within a list and returns the index of the target value along with the time taken to perform the search.

Features

• Perform linear search on a list
• Return the index of the target value if found
• Return -1 if the target value is not found
• Measure and return the time taken for the search operation

Installation

Add the following dependency to your pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  linear_search_uzimizniki: ^1.0.0

Usage

import 'package:linear_search_uzimizniki/linear_search_uzimizniki.dart';

void main() {
  // Define a list of integers to search within
  List<int> list = [2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20];

  // Specify the target value that you want to search for in the list
  int targetValue = 10;

  // Perform a linear search on the list to find the target value
  // The search function returns a LinearSearchResult object
  var result = LinearSearch.search(list, targetValue);

  // Check if the target value was found in the list
  if (result.index != -1) {
    // If the target value is found, print its index
    print('Value found at index: ${result.index}');
  } else {
    // If the target value is not found, print a message indicating this
    print('Value not found.');
  }

  // Print the time taken to perform the search in milliseconds
  print('Time taken: ${result.timeTaken.inMilliseconds} milliseconds');
}
