A Common-Sense Guide to Data Structures and Algorithms in Python, Volume 1: page 31 - Number of steps linear search error

Page 31, final paragraph reads:

If you had 3 elements, you’d need up to 3steps. For 7 elements, you’d need a maximum of 3 steps. For 100 values, you’d need up to 100 steps

The middle sentence should read for 7 elements you’d need a maximum of 7 steps.
