TCC Stock Symbol Search Project

Hello, I need you to help me on creating this code on Visual Studio 2019 with C++ language.

Class,

The attached program loads an array of stock symbols (the screenshots). Use the existing array and related data items and create more if needed.

Use the attached program for this assignment and complete the following tasks:

1. Create a void method called linearSearch – this method should be placed prior to main().
   1. This method should have 3 parameters – the array, the array size, and the string to find.
   2. This method should display “Linear Search” when it starts.
   3. This method should do a serial (linear) search AND:
      1. If found, display “???? found at index ???” where ???? is the value searched and ??? is the matching index.
      2. If not found, display “??? not found” (Replace ??? with the passed stock to find).
2. In main(), create a loop and prompt for a 3 character Stock to search for and load into the stockToFind string variable. If the selection is “X”, then end the loop.
   Example prompt – “Enter a Stock Symbol or X to exit:”.
   1. From main() pass the stocks, STOCK_COUNT, and stockToFind variables to this method
3. Remove completed TODO related TASK comments once the tasks are completed.

Optional: You may lower the value in the STOCK_COUNT constant to better visualize the process if wanted.

Example display below – Your results will vary – The first 7 lines displayed are already coded in the provided program.
