Visual Basic.NET Programming. Beginner Lesson 19. Linear Search

This is the nineteenth in a series of computer science video tutorials for beginners, about programming with Visual Basic.NET (VB.NET) in Visual Studio. In this lesson you will learn how to code a linear search. A linear search is one of many well-known searching and sorting algorithms that you will come across as a programmer. The principle of a linear search is to look for a particular item within an array variable (or list) by examining each item one after another, until the item being searched for is found, or until the end of the list is eventually reached.

I think these are the smoothest explanations of any tutorial I've seen. I've not even needed to go back to try to understand something twice in the entire series

Wow, temporarily changing case makes so much sense, user input is not always case correct. Thanks so much....JT
