Searching an element in an array

Create a function that takes an array and an integer v,and returns True if v is in the array / list 2D (False otherwise). The function should be efficient and stop searching the 2 loops as soon as possible. the function should add a variable Nsteps to count the number of steps used by the algorithm when loops execute then display that information.

The main program takes an array / list 2D, call the function, and display the result.
