📌 Description

This PR adds flowcharts for Binary Search and Linear Search algorithms as part of issue #6472 (Add Flowcharts for Algorithm Understanding).

These are the first contributions (Searching algorithms) to confirm the format, design, and folder structure.
If the format looks good, I would be happy to continue adding flowcharts for other algorithms gradually.

🎨 Flowchart Design Details

  • Color Coding:

    • 🟩 Start/End: Light green ovals
    • 🟪 Input/Output: Purple parallelograms
    • 🟦 Process/Assignment: Blue rectangles
    • 🔺 Decision/Condition: Red diamonds
    • 🟧 Complexity Notes: Orange rectangle (time & space complexity)

  • Shapes Used:

    • Oval → Start/End points
    • Parallelogram → Input/Output operations
    • Rectangle → Processing steps (e.g., setting pointers, updating indices)
    • Diamond → Decision-making conditions (e.g., low > high?, arr[mid] == target?)

This ensures consistent and beginner-friendly flowcharts across algorithms.

📂 Files Added

  • flowcharts/searching/Binary_Search.png
  • flowcharts/searching/Linear_Search.png

✅ Checklist

  • Flowcharts follow the proposed folder structure
  • Clear color coding and standardized shapes
  • Complements the existing algorithm implementations

🔗 Related Issue

Part of #6472

Please review the format and let me know if I can be assigned to continue adding flowcharts for the remaining algorithms.

Thanks for your effort! As mentioned in the PR discussion of #6518 , GIFs or flowcharts aren’t wanted in this repository. Please refer to the messages in the PR #6518 for details.

If you’re still interested in creating such diagrams, you’d need to contact the org owners and start a discussion on the TheAlgorithms Discord.
Thank you for your understanding.
