Write a program to search an element in an array

This is a Java program that prompts the user to enter an array of integers, and then searches for a specific element in the array. Here is a brief explanation of what the program does:

The program first prompts the user to enter the size of the array.
It then creates an integer array of the specified size.
The program then prompts the user to enter each element of the array.
After the user has entered all the elements, the program prompts the user to enter the element they want to search for.
The program then loops through each element of the array, comparing it to the search element.
If the search element is found in the array, the program sets a flag variable (f) to 1 and breaks out of the loop.
If the search element is not found in the array, the flag variable remains 0.
If the flag variable is 1, the program displays the position and index of the element in the array. Otherwise, it displays a message indicating that the element was not found.

Note: This program assumes that the user will enter valid input (i.e., integer values for the array size and elements). If the user enters invalid input (e.g., a non-integer value), the program will terminate with an error message.

Source Code

import java.util.Scanner;
class Array_Search_Element
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{   
		Scanner input =new Scanner(System.in);
		System.out.print("Enter the Array Limit :");
		int l =input.nextInt();
		int [] a =new int[l];
		for(int i=0;i<l;i++)
		{
			System.out.printf("Element of a[%d] :",i);
			a[i]=input.nextInt();
		}
		System.out.print("Enter the Search Array Element :");
		int s =input.nextInt();
		int i,f=0;
		for(i=0; i<l; i++)
		{
			if(a[i]==s)
			{				
				f=1;
				break;
			}
		}
		if(f==1)
		{
			System.out.printf("The Element is found in the position : %d", i + 1);
			System.out.printf("\nThe Element is found in the index : %d", i);
		}
		else
		{
			System.out.println("The Element is Not found");
		}
    }
}

Output

Enter the Array Limit :5
Element of a[0] :10
Element of a[1] :20
Element of a[2] :30
Element of a[3] :40
Element of a[4] :50
Enter the Search Array Element :30
The Element is found in the position : 3
The Element is found in the index : 2
