Here’s an example of a linear search implementation in Python:

def linear_search(list, target_element):
    for i, element in enumerate(list):
        if element == target_element:
            return i  # Element found, return its index
    return -1  # Element not found
  
if __name__ == '__main__':
    list = [2, 3, 4, 10, 40]
    target_element = 10
    result = linear_search(list, target_element)
    if result != -1:
        print(f'Element {target_element} found at index {result}.')
    else:
        print(f'Element {target_element} not found in the list.')
