Algorithm Efficiency Help!!!!

//   This program randomly generates a series of test data of 

// differing sizes 

//   (5 - 100 positive integers) reading them into array a. 

//   It then randomly generates a search key 

//   and searches the elements of the array using linear search. 

//   It returns a table giving the amount of data the test was 

//   run on and the number of comparisons made.

// generation functions

//(like int is already a type)
