Abstract

This paper develops sequential search algorithm by using new structure called Triple structure. In this structure data are represented as triple. It consists of three locations (1-Top, 2- Left, and 3- Right)
Sequential search algorithm is a simplest form. This search is applicable to a table organized either as an array or as a linked list, this process makes the maximum number of comparisons (Average case complexity of Search) is O( n) (pronounce this "big-Oh-n"or "the order of magnitude"), if we search in a list consists of N elements. In this research the number of comparison is reduced to a third by using triple structure, is achieved this process makes the maximum number of comparisons is O(2.5(n/3)) if search in a list consist of N elements.
