This code output FOUND or NOT FOUND tem times. Instead, it should
output FOUND or NOT FOUND once. You need an extra variable to keep
track whether the number is found or not. For example:


   bool located=false;
   for(int i=0; i < SIZE; i++)
      if(myarray[i] == number)
         located = true;
   if(located)
      cout << "FOUND";
   else
      cout << "NOT FOUND";
