Q: Explain the given code in your own words.

 find(X): traverse the array until X is located.
 int find(int X)
 {
    int j;
    for(j=1; j < size+1; j++ )
    if( A[j] == X ) break;
    if( j < size+1 ) {  // found X
    current = j;       // current points to where X found
    return 1;  // 1 for true
  }
    return 0; // 0 (false) indicates not found

Answer 1

find(X): traverse the array until X is located.
// define a function find(x) that takes the an integer x and traverse the array to find the location of x
 int find(int X)
 {
    int j;
    for(j=1; j < size+1; j++ )
    if( A[j] == X ) break;
    if( j < size+1 ) {  // X is found
    current = j;       // store the points where x is found in aa variable current 
    return 1;  // return 1 if x is found
  }
    return 0; // return 0 if x is found
