how do i delete a part of an array

[Genisis]

dont know how to delete part of an array and one of the options of my program is that the use can choose to delete a record how do i do that?

Usually the record that needs to be deleted is swaped with the last record in the array, and then cut via reducing array's size by one.

Your best bet if you need to do something like this is to use not an array at all, but rather one of Java's Collection classes. Perhaps ArrayList.

yeah theres the ArrayList class and also the LinkedList class... they're quite similar but it depends on what you're doing if you want the better choice for you.
