QUESTION 16 OF 26

Many Apple Software Engineers prefer to program in Java. Can you describe how you would implement linear search in JavaScript?

This question asks you to detail the process you use to perform a specific operation within a software programming language. During an interview, you should listen carefully to each question the interviewer asks. Always make sure that the interviewer completes the question before you begin to formulate your answer. This will ensure that you respond to the right question and provide the interviewer with the information they are seeking.

"The easiest way to implement a linear search within JavaScript is to create an algorithm that examines each element in the list and determines whether it matches the value I have defined. Once I've created the algorithm, I can repurpose it by simply redefining the value and/or the list I am using. This is just one of the Java programming techniques I will used if hireed as a Software Engineer here at Apple."
