Linear Search and Binary Search are algorithms for finding an element in a list:

- Linear Search: Scans each element in the list sequentially until it finds the target or reaches the end. It works on unsorted lists but is inefficient for large datasets with a time complexity of O(n).

- Binary Search: Efficiently finds an element by repeatedly dividing a **sorted** list in half and comparing the target with the middle element. If the target is smaller, it searches the left half; if larger, the right half. It has a time complexity of O(log n) but requires a sorted list.

Binary Search is faster but needs sorted data, unlike Linear Search.
