Shorten array length once element is remove in Java.
- by lupin
Note:
Following is my homework/assignment, feel free not to answer if you will.
I want to delete/remove an element from an String array(Set) basic, I'm not allowed to use Collections..etc.
Now I have this:
void remove(String newValue) {
for ( int i = 0; i < setElements.length; i++) {
if ( setElements[i] == newValue ) {
setElements[i] = "";
}
}
}
I does what I want as it remove the element from an array but it doesn't shorten the length. The following is the output, basically it remove the element indexed #1.
D:\javaprojects>java SetsDemo

Member elements on index: 0 A
Member elements on index: 1 b
Member elements on index: 2 hello
Member elements on index: 3 world
Member elements on index: 4 six
Set size is: 5
