    Example comparing two search algorithms. To look for "Morin, Arthur" in some ficitious participant list, linear search needs 28 checks, while binary search needs 5. Svg version: File:Binary search vs Linear search example svg.svg.

  3. Linear search problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_search_problem

    The linear search problem was solved by Anatole Beck and Donald J. Newman (1970) as a two-person zero-sum game. Their minimax trajectory is to double the distance on each step and the optimal strategy is a mixture of trajectories that increase the distance by some fixed constant. [ 8 ]

  4. Linear search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_search

    In computer science, linear search or sequential search is a method for finding an element within a list. It sequentially checks each element of the list until a match is found or the whole list has been searched. [1] A linear search runs in linear time in the worst case, and makes at most n comparisons, where n is the length of

  5. Line search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_search

    In optimization, line search is a basic iterative approach to find a local minimum of an objective function:. It first finds a descent direction along which the objective function f {\displaystyle f} will be reduced, and then computes a step size that determines how far x {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} } should move along that direction.

    A multiple choice question, with days of the week as potential answers. Multiple choice (MC), [1] objective response or MCQ(for multiple choice question) is a form of an objective assessment in which respondents are asked to select only the correct answer from the choices offered as a list.

  7. Linear probing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_probing

    Linear probing is a component of open addressing schemes for using a hash table to solve the dictionary problem.In the dictionary problem, a data structure should maintain a collection of key–value pairs subject to operations that insert or delete pairs from the collection or that search for the value associated with a given key.

  8. Talk:Linear search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Linear_search

    Yes. It gets used and it gets called "linear search." People might not know what that is. It totally deserves a place in an encyclopedia. Graue. I agree that Linear Search deserves a Wikipedia article. However, most of the example implementations don't implement linear search, they simply call a stdlib function that (presumably) implements it.

    Vertical distance: Simple linear regression; Resistance to outliers: Robust simple linear regression; Perpendicular distance: Orthogonal regression (this is not scale-invariant i.e. changing the measurement units leads to a different line.) Weighted geometric distance: Deming regression
